Wednesday, July 1, 2015 - Intense dark ruby core with good vibrant brownish rims.
Nice expressive nose of tobacco, cigar box, dried herbs, earth and some blackcurrant. Beautiful and elegant nose. Simply the nose of the night among the 3 aged wines.
Smooth, supple and elegant, along with tobacco, cigar box, earthy and chalky notes. Still got nice freshness and blackcurrant on palate with balance acidity. Long lingering finish with soft chewy tannins. Not too impressive but it has nice balance and harmony.
Amazing and what a surprise! This bottle is holding up nicely and lovely to drink. Another difficult vintage but it manage to transcend the poor and uneven vintage.
