Solid wine still going strong after 11 years. Tannins still assertive, fruit a bit muted in old world style. Slight bitter edge resolves after about an hour.

Absolument pas prêt à boire. Présentement, c'est une masse de tanins râpeux et désagréables. Longueur moyenne et verdeur en finale. Je n'ai pas pu en boire plus qu'un verre et encore là en me forçant. Ça prendra beaucoup de temps avant que ce vin soit meilleur. Mais le sera t'il un jour?

Round and approachable, not too soft, with a big ball of very cab-ish fruit, old-school slightly peppery cab fruit. Really nice and a welcome change from the ocean of dull Bdx out there. Not that this couldn't still use a little more liveliness but it's really pretty good, pretty solid.
