Wednesday, May 8, 2024 - Incredibly tight at first, so needed to wait about 3-4 hours to get a glimpse of what this offers. Deep ruby red in the glass. Unmistakably Right Bank on the nose, with the dark fruit dominating the whole profile. Some baking spices, vanilla, hazelnut and earthy tones in there as well. Palate is silky smooth, almost too smooth for a Bordeaux, but I love it. Ripe tannins, high acidity, balance in check. Long, sweet-fruited finish with a hint of graphite. Approachable now, but will deliver for the years to come.
