Thursday, February 5, 2015 - Nose: Deep layered nose of truffles, cigar box, pencil shavings, cassis and baking spices. Palate: Just a suave pauillac with blackberry, cassis and a nice truffley earthy sweetness. Finish: long as can be with a nice graceful balance.
This is definitely rarefied air in Bordeaux, and handily beats the 89 in quality. Depth of flavor without weight that really is unique. Marc - cannot thank you enough for this treat.
