Seems on the downhill, but could pickup as elucidated in the prior post. Just opened ten minutes ago. *3rd night really opened up and came back to life. Aged left bank. *4th night cherry bomb it has become..maraschino and black. Really evolving for the better. Restoring from a 91 from the first night.

Needs time to be opened, but not decanted. Faint and restrained at first, but opens up showing a very classic Margaux profile. Certainly not fruit driven, there is cedar dusted blackcurrant and some dried flowers. Very fine and elegant with only 12.5%. Feels delicate and fragile but is simply lovely with a piece of lamb.
