Drinking exceptionally well at the moment! Dominated by minty dark fruits, dense and rich on the palate, I'd like to imagine what the first wine looks like!

This one is starting to head downhill. A lot of tertiary aromas, tannins are mostly gone, still some acid. Notes of viola, pepper and pencil shavings. Still very enjoyable, but definietly past it's peak. Nice experience!

Zu Kalbsfilet an Morchelsauce. Der Korken war trocken - liess sich nicht ziehen, sondern zerbröselte komplett, sodass der Wein in den Dekanter abgesiebt werden musste. Anfänglich total verschlossen, öffnete sich erst nach drei Stunden. Dörrpflaume, Waldboden, Leder, Kiesel. Weiche Tannine, mittlerer Körper, schöner Abgang. Ein schöner Margaux - aber wenig Tiefe/Komplexität. Mit den zwei restlichen Flaschen werde ich noch zuwarten!

At our Commanderie dinner of Second Wines(1995 & 2005 Pavillon Rouge, 2005 Bahans Haut Brion, 2009 Croix de Beaucaillou and 2009 Reserve de la Comtesse).
More developed than the 2005 at this stage. At a good place in its development. I was very impressed. Many in our group liked the bit of Brett. Other were very bothered. Drink now-2025.

Loads of cedar on the nose. Primarily red fruits with resolved tannin.
