Still drinking well actually—smooth, fully integrated, modern styled Bdx with darker fruits and graphite. Drank this last bottle a little distractedly over the course of a long night, and it did start to fall apart after a few hours.

Massive improvement over my first bottle I drank on September, 2013. The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry jam, cherry and plum. It tastes like black currant (cassis), cherry, dark plum and vanilla. The body is light/medium. The wine has leathery texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

Deep crimson to ruby color. Aromas of dark fruit, smoke, and light herbs. Medium to full body, pretty bright acidity, and medium+ finish. Flavors of dark red, black, and blue fruit, along w/ a complicating note of smokey oak. Enjoyed it after dinner tonight, but would be good w/ a grilled steak. Tannins are moderate--it's approachable now even on the pop, but I think can go 2-5 more years.

08 Château Teyssier is the entry level offering from the enigmatic Jonathan Maltus. Produced from a myriad of different plots, this wine, 85% merlot and 15% cabernet franc from mostly sandy soils, will benefit from early drinking. Elegantly styled, with black fruit, herbs, and oak, the wine finishes with soft textures and ripe, dark berries. 88-91 Pts

Cedar and leather on the nose. Nice fruit, gentle body w decent acidity, tannins gripped a bit on the end. Solid.

Had at my annual wine tasting. An okay right bank Bordeaux good for everyday consumption. There just wasn't any thing special about it.
