Friday, January 28, 2022 - Decanted for about an hour. Deep ruby/purple color. Pretty expressive notes of graphite, mulberries, macerated cherries, dark plum, charcoal, smoke, dark chocolate, also some spices and mint as well as some tobacco leaf. It's medium-full bodied with medium-high but silky tannin and medium acidity. Very good length. A pretty full-throttle but balanced St-Emilion from this very good producer. This is just at the beginning of its drinking window and the decant really helped to open the wine up.
