April 27, 2024 - How is the 2016 not reviewed yet? Are people still waiting?
This is great. Just popped it. So much going on for a very reasonably priced Médoc. Sweet Blackberry/Black Cherry, juicy, the savoury eventually comes in - tobacco leaf, wood, espresso, spice, cherry stone, and drying powdery grip. The mid-palate's richness drops away quickly, which leaves a slight gap between the middle and finish, which is medium/long; but the overall effect is engaging. The body is light/middle weight, but the concentration is good. Enough acid to take it through to the early 2030s I'd guess, but I'm no expert.
If you can afford fairly posh wine, this is a good mid-week cheapy. If you can't much afford 'posh' wine, this is worth pushing the boat out for.
