  Great performing at this level and very harmonious right now. Some real grip in the tannins so thats expected, mixed with some great purity of cassis fruit, oak, spice, and it's all just coming together as something gorgeous and classic. Length is there. Very nice and reminds me yet again that there is great value beyond the big names in Bordeaux. It is effortlessly classy. Wish I had way more. No rush, but I would drink up in the next 1-5 years as I prefer some pronounced fruit mixing with the age. Hats off.

  Fairly rich, ripe tannin, dark fruit, cedar and tobacco. For a property with little reputation this is a real success. ****.

  Decanted for 4 hours. A dark colour; initially, the palate is soft and rich, with concentrated blackcurrant fruit. After a while, some tannin starts to poke though and the wine closes up a little. Very good though.
  
  Last drunk about 3 years ago and it has developed well since then, although more time would help.

  Wish i had perused the tasting notes before opening this.
  The previous taster gets this spot on, the wine is currently fairly dense and impenetrable. Not that i still didn’t enjoy drinking it, but as i enjoyed the 2004 I expected big things from the 10. Hopefully time will work it’s magic , another 5 years probably.
