Dark reddish purple with slight bricking towards the rim. Aromas of cassis, black plums, camphor, cedar and pressed violets on the nose. A medium-full bodied palate shows sweet-savory black fruits, hint of black olive tapenade and tobacco, good acidity and gritty and drying tannins on the finish.

Wonderful Magaux. Great Vintage. Perfumed, crushed matured fruit, balsamic and sanguine taste and aroma, medium plus acidity, medium plus body and balanced in all aspects. Drink now or in another 6 years.

This bottle was absolutely amazing. Hallmark notes of cassis, tobacco, and scorched earth and with the nerve and complexity you wish from a mature claret. In a perfect stage right now, and no reason to keep.
PnP and consumed over the next 2h, 13% Alc., black berry color.
Nose: Stems, black and red cassies.
Palate: Overall very good balance, good structure, drink animating freshness, black and red berries a bit on the diffuse side, seems a little over extracted. Nice matured Bordeaux with sufficient additional reserves for further years of drinking pleasure.

Found a last bottle. As good as I remembered. Very opulent and full bodied with cassis, blackberries, mocha and cedar. Long, balanced and spicy finish.
