Monday, February 19, 2024 - Three years plus since the last bottle. This wine took a long time to come around but boy is it singing now. It had great structure, fine tannins and, very curiously, the fruit had a touch of sweetness to it. In some ways, it reminded me of a fine Burgundy. Yet, all the other old Bordeaux characteristics were there as well. Consumed at the Capital Grille in Naples with a long term friend and member of the Commanderie de Bordeaux. He was wowed as well. It would have been interesting to put this wine against a 1990 Leoville las Cases and 1990 Leoville Poyferre.
