Saturday, January 13, 2024 - Medium deep brick red.
Aromas of cedar, blackcurrant jam, ripe plum, tobacco, scorched earth and mint.
Dry sanded tannins. Blackcurrant acids and black tea bitterness.
Palate of cassis, sloe, leather, cloves, cardamom, black pepper, black coffee and autumn leaf.
A rather mature, rustic and one-dimensional medoc with fading black fruit, coffee and peppery aromas and a tight, slightly dry finish. Drink within 3 years. Tasted 2024.
Tasted alongside Tignanello 1995 and the matched wine was vital, complex and more generous than the present wine.
