Brilliant. Brick red, redcurrant, blackcurrant leaf and herbs on the nose and a full, gentle but tight fruit mouthful of unctuous joy. Still drinking well as a sophisticated, complex cigar and leather mouthful of joy.

Enjoyed this a lot. First bottle from a case I bought really cheap. When I broak the case open it reeked of TCA. But this bottle was fine, with perfectly mature black currant fruit.

Beautiful wine. At its perfect peak; there is some power left, but is perfectly soft now and a great pleasure to drink. Full bodied, good black currant fruit and soft tannin in the finish.

In fact a very nice wine. Little lead pencil, good soft black currants. At its peak now. Lovely.

Lovely wine. Perfectly at its peak now. Full bodied, good fruit, lead pencil. Typically Pauillac. Firm wine.
