  very similar note... this bottle felt a little clunkier but was still a very good wine in a fun style. can still hold this a few years longer.

  WOW. Just hitting the sweet spot, no ragged edges or harsh tones, but impeccably balanced and nearly perfect. Pretty black fruit, not in your face but more subtle, and ideal with our steak frites dinner at our favorite bistro. Way exceeded our expetations, and many kudos from or friends. Loved it.

  Consistent with previous bottle. Really in a great spot. Great mix of dark, spicy fruit with savory tobacco and earthy, woodsy notes.

  Still deep ruby, pronounced nose of black fruits, herbs, and animal. Palate showing mostly primary notes still, ripe dark and black fruits, cassis, black currants, plum skins, leather, clove and black pepper. Tannins have begun to resolve, fruit is starting to mellow out, this was in a pretty good spot tonight, but I think this is still 3-5 years from its peak as it could still get more complex. A very nice Bordeaux and at its current value this is pretty good! 90-91
