Monday, January 30, 2023 - This is a wine that will confirm the beliefs of both Bordeaux lovers and Bordeaux skeptics. The skeptics will find it tart and relatively fruitless, and the lovers will find it complex and intoxicating. Lots of fine sediment. Dark color. Heady floral aroma -- roses and blackberries. High acidity and moderate high tannin. Gained weight with aeration. Aromas carry over to palate -- roses and blackberries with a background flavor of mushroom. The aftertaste is a little underpowered, dilute, but overall this is a very satisfying young Bordeaux. I expect it to improve with age and to last for a very long time.
