Typical Bordeaux on the nose, but a bit muted and unbalanced. Probably should have decanted the bottle.

My last of these. This is one of the best of the '14 vintage I've had, as I tend to find the '14 Bordeaux vintage a bit closed and awkward. This is so refined, classy and polished. It's showing quite well now too.

Opened for a good eight hours before serving with roast leg of lamb. This is in a beautiful place right now. Generous blackcurrant fruit, some pencil shavings/graphite, and a bit of cedar/cigar box coming on. Nice bitter edge to it on the palate, which means food really is a must here. (It’s classified Bordeaux, so that kind of goes without saying.) The only reasons I’m not rating this higher right now is because 1) I suspect it isn’t peaking yet, and 2) the finish did leave a little something to be desired and was slightly overwhelmed by the richness of the fat from the excellent local lamb.

Noch deutlich Tannine, jung aber schon trinkbar und erstaunlich ausgewogen, mehr Frucht als der 2012er
