Black, opaque colour! Strong black fruits, peppery notes, rather monolithic, austere on the palate! The seriousness is phenomenal, bothering to the status of the super clinical! Is it another version of vintage nineteen seventy-five? I think it still needs a few more years of cellaring!

Decanted and tasted over 3 hours. Best were the last drops. This was a shockingly youthful bright garnet color with no bricking. Nose was classic Bordeaux with slightly musty, earthy notes and mostly red berry fruit like cranberry, red cherry and pomegranate with some florals. Palate evolved slowly after an initial burst. At the end it was a brightly acid driven and even still a bit closed. It was expressive and long on the finish. It did go great with both grilled Cajun rubber pork chops and NY Strip steaks.

Nez discret mais profond, fruit, tabac froid, mine de crayon, menthe. Bouche aux tanins magnifiques, très fine mais avec de l'énergie, beaucoup de fruit, c'est très agréable.

Dark color with the edges still a solid red, wonderful black currant and dark cherry nose, tannins are softening leading to a long finish with hints of cedar.

Cherry red colour. Nose of cherry, red pepper and cedar wood. Medium body and well blended tannins. Medium length on the palate. Drink now.
