Clear pale medium ruby. Dark berries and red fruits- blackberry, red plumb, white pepper, licorice Cedar, vanilla, some very slight tertiary mushroom. Dry, medium acidity, medium silky tannin. Dark fruits- blackberry, plum, vanilla, white pepper, clove. Full luscious mouthfeel, medium alcohol. Long finish. Some mushroom/earth, but not overpowering. Outstanding wine. Well balanced, good length, very good intensity, lots of layered complexity.

This bottle is considerably better than previous openings. My last bottle was in 2015. The wine benefited from some air, but was drinking very well from the start and over the following three hours. Wondering nose of secondary notes of cedar, spice and forest. Medium length finish. Drinking well now and continue for some time.

Well resolved and the most seductive wine in a 1995 right bank flight, which included Gazin and Magdelaine. It has a sexy milk chocolate, mocha and caramel entry and a silky and caressing palate - it was like an aphrodisiac - you could almost hear Serge Gainsbourg on the organ and Jane Birkin whispering Je T’Aime in the background - it was a big hit with all the fellas around the table.

Quite sweet and open on the nose, touch of caramel. Medium bodied, lightly gamey, red fruit, spice, very fine tannins, lovely texture. Seamless.
