  Ruby with some brick color
  On the nose mostly tree bunches, star anise
  On the palate, strawberry, black currant
  Chewy tannins, high acidity
  Slowly opening up
  
  30mins, floral note came out
  1h ish in, very open, but can def go longer
  For me this is firm & structure with great elegance

  red and black currants, noticable acidity but surprisingly young for its age

  Blackberry, ripe plum, sweet, high acid. Tastes younger than its 10 years of age. Long, varietially correct finish, some herbaceousness. My thoughts, in sequence were: "tastes like Russian River Pinot... no, too much acid: Oregon... as if made by a Frenchman... like an Evening Land..." which I then recalled was, indeed, associated with Dominique Lafon.

  Smooth and supple. Perfect drinking window for the '04.

  Incredible aroma but the taste didn't match up. Very average. Probably a couple years too late.
