January 15, 2023 - An unexpected bottle of this after trying in a restaurant a few months ago, this is towards the end of its drinking window. A fully mature Bordeaux with full secondary and tertiary characteristics can paper over a lot of cracks to deliver a sensual ethereal experience. The nose and palate display plum, cherry, and white pepper with great depth. The pepper notes are very dominant on the finish and would be unpleasant in a younger wine, but its maturity allows it to be masked. This really needs to be drunk over the next year to derive enjoyment.
