Nice smell, full nose of ripe fruits. Taste is a bit bitter and short. Nice experience but not as nice as a few years ago m, is this wine past its drinking window?

Fragrant bouquet, ripe plums and black fruits, dark chocolate, roasted fennel and expensive oak. Very delicious smell. Palate is fresh and persistent. Medium-bodied mid-palate. Nice transition to a deep and lingering finish.

Starting to get into the zone perhaps? Cedar, pine needles, the fruit is there but hiding behind the structure. Finely etched but old school midweek claret. Just what the doctor ordered.

There has been quite a transformation since my bottle about three years ago. The nose has become expressive with typically Médocain blackcurrant fruit infused with a touch of noble green and discreet cigar box. This follows through onto the medium bodied palate where the fruit has become more gracious and more complexity has developed leading to a decently long and well supported finish. This is now a worthy successor to the very good wines I had in most vintages from 1988 to 2001 but, alas, it is my last bottle. Very good.
