Paired with small birds for Christmas dinner, this bottle was recently "ex-chateau". Had alongside a '12 Lachini S and this was so much fruitier. Dark cherry jam with hints of plum, raspberry, cocoa, and loam. Nice length and backbone. Now-2025.

Good, but not great. Muted aromatics, oak is mostly resolved but still shows lots of powdered cocoa, savory plum, chocolate covered cherry, and very ripe raspberry. Good balance. Medium finish.

Drank over a couple of nights. Worked out OK at $17, but was consumed casually and that was about right.
