  • Plenty of power for the vintage. Rich and smooth with some lingering tannin. Very enjoyable right now.

    delicious with food or alone with a good book. Serve in a wide glass to really smell the beauty of this wine

  • This is a predominantly Merlot blend with 14.5% abv. The wine was decanted for 3h before tasting. The nose betrays the Mitjavile touch, in a “In Your Face” baroque style, but racy and classy, with bewitching scents of cherry brandy, leather, cigar box, cedar, a bit of vanilla and a hint of truffle. Medium-bodied, the palate mixes the flavors of very ripe and juicy dark fruits (close your eyes for a moment and imagine yourself biting into a black plum just fallen from the tree, at the extreme limit of rotting and yet still incredibly fresh), tobacco, graphite and the very beginning of autumnal tertiary notes. It's longer than wide, rather straight, with material that I expected muscular and corpulent but which finally seems to be woven into fine lace. The balance is masterful and the wine finishes very very long on earthy, graphite and smoky nuances. Wow! This is stunning and in a great spot right now!

    very nice merlot based bordeaux blend, lots of life remaining for this 2011. Not a 2 day wine IMO.

  • Wine dinner with friends. Decanted for 5h. This was our WOTN amongst some highly anticipated bottles! Our notes from 2018 mostly hold. A little less funk on the nose this time. The structure was well balanced, with both acid and tannins fully integrated and supporting the intense, complex flavors and full mouthfeel very well. As predicted, this is aging very well. Arguably peaking now, but should hold very well for another 10 years. Drink now to 2032. Outstanding 96.
