Tasted this at the Chateau Lagrange Wine Dinner with Mattieu Borders at Famous Treasure hosted by Infinite Supply.
Everything was going right for this wine this evening. Captivating nose that makes the taster go wow. Simply wow. Fresh and lively with fresh notes that jumps up and down in the palate. Despite being a 20 year old wine, it carries enough weight and class to present a formidable and harmonious finish.

Drank with surloin steak, mini roasted potatoes and baked garlic asleragus. The colour was light red. Smelled like a fine Bordeau does. The taste was perfect with the meal.

Decanted for an hour. Quite expressive on the nose, mature cassis with graphite. The palate is distinctly minerally, almost salty, with lots of cassis. Definitely needed food to go with, very nice.

The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like black currant (cassis). It smells like gooseberry. It tastes like black currant (cassis). The body is light/medium. The wine has narrow texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

Tasted a bottle opened 5 hours earlier and still a lovely warm nose of cassis, cedar and bramble. Silky smooth in the mouth, well structured with soft tannins. This will last and plateau here but I doubt will get any better than it was today.
