  Mulling spices heavy on clove and anise on the nose still lots of fruit on the palate with a long smokey finish definitely not dead yet!

  Grenat intense avec disque qui commence a briquer.
  Au nez, cuire, fruits rouges, un peu de cannelle.
  En bouche, pruneau, sous-bois, tanins completement fondus, longueur moyenne-courte, très peu d'acidité. Bien fait, agréable, mais sans artifices.

  Colour: purple, young
  1st nose: closed, a bit alcoholic that match the hot 2003.
  2nd nose: melt liquorice, wood, smoke, sweet blueberry note emerged after an hour
  Palate: ripe fruit, concentrated, very woody and smoky that match the nose, mouthcoating drying tannin that is a bit too hard;
  After one hour, more ripe fruit, sweeter and softer tannin, still smoky, a little bit creamy, medium-bodied
  Finish: medium smoky tannic finish
  Overall: good claret but not very outstanding. Needs 1.5 hour of decanting. I like its smoky character which makes it goes really well with red meat. This is a food-accompanying wine that is not supposed to stand alone.

  From magnum. Young, purplish colour; discrete nose; moderate to good intensity on the palate, with some upside still. Classic claret - nicely balanced, nothing over the top (a good achievement considering the vintage), but nothing very exciting.
