Deep purple with minimal fading on the rim. Bouquet with lilac, green peppers, chocolate, oregano, rosemary and a touch of cedar. The palate is velvety with fine integrated tannins and generous freshness. Balanced but with a strong presence. This is just starting to open up. Decanted for 2 hours.

Quite ripe and glossy, lots of dark fruit, spices, coffee, chocolate on the nose. On the palate well integrated acidity, very smooth and ripe tannins, oodles of fruit. Big wine, but very well balanced. Very impressive length, too. 93-94+

K&L Wines of Bordeaux Tasting (K&L Wines, Redwood City, CA): 80% Merlot, 20% Cab Franc, and barrel fermented. Medium/Deep garnet color. Red and black currants, cedar, and dried leaves. Great structure on the palate, with cherries underlined by fine-grained tannins. Very young, but showing great promise.

Bordeaux 2015 in bottle (Zurich Arvi / Singapore UGCB): Not a fan of this wine usually but boy, this was a good showing. Lots of dark fruit, vanilla, soft and complex on the palate. Long finish.
