Thursday, February 14, 2013 - Very good quality Pauillac with medium ruby color, showing a fairly intense and complex nose of blackcurrant, blackberry and bilberry, cocoa and chocolate, liquorice, tobacco and savory, meaty, cedar and caramel, and earth. Very well-balanced, with the acidity supporting the ripe, velvety tannin. The wine is fairly full-bodied, with fairly intense palate also showing flavors of blackcurrant, blackberry and bilberry, cedar, liquorice, cigar box and pencil lead. A fairly long finish, it is ready to drink now though can benefit from further ageing of another 5-8 years.
