Superb mature bdx drinking at peak. This isn't falling off and got about 30-40 mins of air before we drank it with a steak dinner. Beautiful, well-made and structured right bank Bordeaux. I should have bought a case of this given the price!

Def past it's window to my palate as it tastes a bit tired, but there is still complex layering you can find. Fruit is mostly faded but cherry pie, that toasty pie crust with sour cherries. Acid is still kicking esp as it settles in the glass. Saddle leather, cigar box, cocoa, incense and mushroom. Menthol backed by initial herbal aromatics (thinking amaro not fresh herbs) though this faded quickly. Light body, light tannins that are delicate. What a treat to drink a 33yo pomerol from a Petrus neighbor.

I concur with Bob23. A special bottle of perfectly aged right bank. This wine does not explode from the glass but rather starts to seduce the taste with dried fruit and secondary notes that to me revolve around figs and dried black cherries. Just great drinking wine.

It's hard to find a Mouiex wine that puts a step wrong. This was an excellent aged Pomerol bought for $69+ from Garagiste. The whole table loved it.
