Friday, October 6, 2023 - I not only like it, I like it a lot! This 18 year old bourgeois has rounded third and is heading into home with a head first slide. Tannins are perfectly integrated and the nose on this wine is intoxicating, to say the least. Dark fruits, filled my mouth with a leathery red licorice that was hard to swallow all too fast. The beautiful finish lingers for minutes and makes this impossible drink too fast. Open it, let it breathe a bit, and take your time with this one. Sooo glad I have a few left which will serve me well in the future. What a wonderful french Bordeaux value!
