Not an ideal vintage Ofcourse and a secondary wine to boot. Still feels disjointed in the mouth, bitter aftertaste, just not great. Will buttchug my other 2 bottles.

Outstanding. Dark inky black color with long legs. Aromas of burnt toast, fig and dark fruits. Less oak than I would have expected. Velvety smooth, heavy, long and lingering on palate. Well-aged bordeaux style with well integrated tanins. Tastes of melted chocolate, cassis, plum sauce on caramel apple streusel maybe?! Anyway, paired well with bar steak and pomme frites. Loved it.

Enjoyed with dry aged porterhouse at Royal 35. Solid.
