Drank with Flood and Lipton at Floods. Nice Pauliac nose, not much on the finish. Fruit was not evident. Still very young with tight tannin, even after several hours decanting and another or so in the glass. The company was great and a memorable 1st growth experience

Bought 2 bottles of this wine about 8 months ago. First bottle was unimpressive. 2nd bottle was worlds apart. Wow. Excellent boquet. This could have passed for a 2001 St. Julien. Earthy overtones, a bit of barnyard. Is this really Napa??? Nice finish. This bottle was awesome for $25.

Drank at Assagi with Lipton. Classic St. Julien boquet. Opened for about 2 hours. Nice mild tannin, nice balance. Not tons of depth, but a great wine.
