  Here's a nicely evolved left bank Bordeaux with complexity well above the mean.
  
  Spicy, meaty, peppery, cedar, resin, black olive, rooty, cassis aromas.
  
  Round, fresh, juicy palate with savoury, smoky, olive, cassis, black cherry & coffee flavours.
  
  Simple but easy, just like moi...fresh, forward-style and a bargain for early drinking Bordeaux.

  Earthy nose, then nIce fruit, reserved wine, good rustic feel, mineral, then some char wood finish, tart cherries. Everything working, balanced. Nice drop.

  P&P nice claret color. Nose of wet stone, french oak, bit of barn in there. Nice. light on the entry, dead middle then nice tart sour cherry rhubarb persistent finish. Lets see how this opens up.

  Tannic is astringent. Still very new and tight, medium body, purple ruby red color. Nose is pleasant with big berry taste on palate.
