Monday, November 30, 2020 - Top neck fill level. Cork in good condition.
Not decanted.
Very youthful hue; more like a 10-15 year old Cab blend.
Classic Medoc nose tobacco and earthy notes as well as faint plum notes. Slight herbal notes in the best sense possible; adding complexity without falling into bellpepper category.
bright acidity, almost fully resolved tannins, surprisingly nice texture. Spicy finish with cigar box aromas. This makes for a great food pairing wine, which - after all- what it is all about.
Quite long finish riding the acidity, spices and cedary notes.
Not going to improve...
