Decanted 30 min. See through ruby, viscous, very aromatic with big ripe blackberries, light vanilla, light leather. Extremely mouth watering, dry, ripe raspberry, light-to-medium body, light tannins. Very enjoyable aroma and flavors and beautiful color to stare at.
Bottle started opening more after and more of graphite, peppercorn aroma set in but well balanced with red fruits.

What a bottle. Deep garnet color, long legs. Alluring nose of tomato vines, balsamic vinegar, and red fruits. The palate is fantastic, with good acidity, notes of balsamic vinegar, dark cherries, strawberries; then the long, beautiful ending kicks in, with some tertiary notes of leather and some oak accompanied by some mellow, nice tannins. This wine is in an excellent drinking window - my only bottle but I wish I had 3-4 more to see how it would evolve in the next 2-3 years. Now it’s refined, elegant - with an understated power reminiscent of a respected, aging statesman. Excellent.

Super beau BdeM, savoureux et langoureux. Fleurs, fruits noirs et épices au nez. En bouche, beau touché satiné. Des roses, de la terre, de l'anis, des prunes et une belle dose de chocolat. Les tannins sont charnus et la finale bien longue est sans accroc.

Delicate but well structured, nice acidity earthy flavor notes with bits of red fruit and just enough tannins to balance.
