Lot Details

Provenance: As close to perfect as possible. Purchased by our vendor en Primeur and stored in a purpose build temperature and humidity controlled cellar ever since. 95 / 100 Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider SEPTEMBER - 2022 Fully into its prime-time drinking window, the nose, with its tobacco, cedar chest, cigar box, herb, forest leaf, and currant-filled perfume is a treat. Full-bodied, with ample concentration, length, freshness, and a wealth of chewy currants on the palate, this is a treat to drink at this stage. Not much decanting is needed, just pop, pour and enjoy the ride. Drink from 2022-2036.
