Notes: This supposedly favorite of many wine critics is not demonstrating much subtlety or finesse in my opinion. Perhaps Saint Julien will remain as one of my least appreciated appellations from Bordeaux as the nose is primarily cedar based which is not something I admire personally. This wine is still quite closed up and I don't have much interest here. Perhaps another couple of years can make this even better? Let's remain hopeful.
