This is outstanding right bank stuff. Gave it 1hr decant which was a bit too short as it clearly improved over the next couple of hours. Full, smooth, fruity, blackberries etc. Drink now with 2hr decant or over next 10yrs

Did not disappoint me as noted by previous reports. PoP already decent with tons of plum, black fruit and vanilla. After 2.5hr decant, it is just beautiful with nonstop length. For a good 2009 at this price, I would stock it.

Decanted for 3-hours prior to our steak dinner. I did sneak a few sips before dinner and it was drinking quite well from the get go. However, it was firing on all cylinders after it's full decant. Silky-smooth tannins, long finish, loads of dark fruit and cherries, rich blueberries, damp earthy minerals, and hints of floral notes. This is truly a stellar wine that is just beginning to show its stuff!
