Much better than the bottle I drank from my own cellar, despite using same source as the restaurant. Much wider open nose. Impressive cassis. Perfume. Palate falls short behind the nose.- However, very good Bordeaux.

Still really enjoyable but not as good as at the time of the earlier tasting. My prediction of improvement hasn’t materialised unfortunately. However, still excellent wine.

Débouché 3h avant le service, bu sur une côte de bœuf. Arrivé à son apogée, tanins résolus. Ce vin me laisse un peu perplexe, il y a quelque chose que je n'ai pas apprécié, un côté sauvage, aigre. Belle texture, mais j'ai vraiment du mal à trouver le plaisir, par exemple, de la cuvée "Le Versant" bu récemment, pour 1/4 du prix. Heureusement, je n'avais qu'une seule bouteille.

Dark ruby red with pinkish-orange rim. Dark cherry, plum, blackberry, dried raspberry, black truffles, earth, tobacco, wood, vanilla, floral and spices. Complex and interesting. Medium-full bodied, medium-high acidity, medium to medium-high tannin, medium alcohol. Long finish.
This vintage was a little more tart than other vintages I had tasted. It almost tasted like the style of natural wine. I like it.
