Classic bdx, ticks all the boxes with its lovely structure, medium body and great length. A bit sleek in comparison to other, more hyped vintages, but this is just really tasty!

Medium purple with hints of garnet Fruit forward on the nose, blackberries, cedar, cigar box, and baking spices Great flavor, black tea, blackberries, licorice, and some hard candy on the finish Fine-grained tannins, nice strong acidity, dry and perfectly balanced. It's a really beautiful and luxurious Bordeaux. It is among my favorites so far

Greenish, dark nose. Much more classic and austere than the ‘15 or ‘00. Very tannic. Needs years. 92?

Wonderful St Julien, better than a Ducru. Just open it and enjoy. A typical Léoville, fruit, acid everything on the right place.

Nice garnet color - pleasant dark fruits - a very linear wine that follows through consistently across the palate and finish. A lingering soft tannic feel. This opened up nicely over 24 hours.
