  Voici un très grand vin issu d'un millésime de grande garde. Sa robe dense, au disque cuivré, est magnifique, son bouquet (cassis, notes torréfiées) est fin, caressant et sa bouche subtile révèle des tannins suaves et savoureux, bien mûrs, d'une grande richesse, longs, de grande classe. Il s'agissait là, hélas, d'une seule et unique bouteille, héritée de mon beau-père!

  Removed from the cellar 5 hours prior to drinking. Surprisingly it was wonderful. Truly expected it to be past it's drinking window. The nose was bold enough to garnish that the wine was going to be as good as good as it.
  It was! The finish was a little weak. But overall a very enjoyable wine for a Saturday afternoon.

  Mature. Well developed and in peak. Nothing like drinking Bordeaux like this.
