Excellent right bank blend. Nice fruit upfront, accompanied by fine tannins. The plush palate revealed cassis and blackberry flavors, with hints of tobacco and forest floor. The alcohol was approaching 15%, much higher than I usually prefer, and it was somewhat noticeable on the nose, but it didn't significantly interfere with the wine. This wine in drinking wonderfully right now!
