Vin plein de vie, à la robe d'un rouge profond, presque pourpre. Nez complexe et qui a besoin d'aération pour dégager des arômes précis. Terre puis fruit rouge masqué par les épices, quelques notes d'essence végétale fraîche en finale, aiguille de pin ? Les tanins sont fondus mais le vin est plein en bouche, révélant peu à peu des notes de cacao. Il ne cesse d'évoluer au cours de la dégustation, ce millésime lui va très bien !

Still holding a nice ruby color with slight bricking on the edge. Mature Bordeaux fruit on nose and on palate. Holding up nicely but perhaps should be enjoyed now rather than later.

Medium intensity clear red in the glass. The rim shows ruby fading to garnet. Aroma is moderate intensity with pleasant signs of some age. Bouquet with vegital and herbal hints. On the palate the wine is bone dry, medium weight with perfect acidity and just the right amount of tannin. Shows facets of mature Bordeaux.

Adriana's birthday party (80) and dinner and 'her' Frans opened some nice bottles: a bit green, paprika, nice bitters, quite short finish.
