  With some tertiary and secondary aromas. A little touch of leather on the palate, just opened, could broaden out.

  Spicy vanilla creeps in after the initial black currant and berries. Long, smooth finish once it opens up. Beautiful Bordeaux.

  Absolutely scrumptious! Chewy, fruit laden and multi flavored from its big bouquet through a long, complex finish. Absolutely at it's peak though I'm sure that is at least a five year plateau. My bottles were bought at a bargain basement price as if the winery and/or wholesaler was dumping the vintage. Given my experience with this wine, it's hard to figure out why. My last bottle and I will miss having no more to enjoy.
