January 17, 2023 - Ambivalent sur cette bouteille...
Dégustation sur 3 jours. Le vin ne présentait pas de signes de vieillissement et a bien tenu.
Nez expressif, cerise, noix grillée.
En bouche, les tanins sont encore bien solides et un peu carrés, les saveurs sont en continuiées avec les arômes, cerise et chocolat.
Persistance moyenne.
Cependant nous sommes deux à avoir ressentie des effets inconfortables post-consommation, maux de tête.1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 30, 2021 - In a good spot and better than most of my other 08s. Went well with lamb chops with garlicky yogurt

February 16, 2020 - Short drying finish. Fruit still there but oak & tannins overpowers this wine. For $20, solid Bordeaux.
