Decanted 2h before, was a bit too long: it seemed slightly beyond its peak. Still concentrated fruit, black berries, but only slight Chateau Margaux character. Very nce wine to drink up now.

With a developed character, starting with the color, you can easily sense the earthy, herbal, secondary characteristics. Slightly past full maturity, the wine is soft, almost, almost light actually. There is still some fruit remaining in the finish, but if you holding any, you are best advised to drink up, before the remaining fruit fades.

Polish and refined, and very much showing its breeding - punchy red fruit layered across fine grained tannins. The more I drinl 2007s the more I enjoy them. Very good, although you would have to be insane to buy this at current market rates.

Opened up after about 1 hour decanted and was quite smooth.
