Deep, inky. Complex bouquet, sweet cherry, blackberry. Cedar, spice, clove. Nice tannins but still need to soften. Acidity high but good. Good finish. Needs another couple of years yet but I’m happy drinking this now. Quite impressed with this wine

This is a late night Vala wine with friends. Nice and pleasurable. Nothing special fruit was still very ripe obviously because of the 2016 but still an enjoyable wine.

This is still a young Bordeaux, a little monolithic, perhaps a bit closed, but with plenty of good tannic structure and deep black fruit. Blackberry, graphite, toasty oak. Powerful. Typical. I loved it.

By the glass. The proverbial Bordolese austerity is transformed into opulence and exuberance. Notes of ripe fruit flood your nostrils while density, persistence and unfortunately alcoholic thrust prevail in your taste buds. Prices accordingly. Truly my nose and palate need a rest to get out of this tasting fatigue in which they seem destined to remain. Apparently and for more inri, there is still another final flight to finish this trip by 2016 second row B'dx.
Por copas. La proverbial austeridad bordolesa se transforma en opulencia y exuberancia. Notas de fruta madura inundan tus fosas nasales mientras que la densidad, la persistencia y desgraciadamente el empuje alcohólico prevalecen en tus papilas gustativas. Precios en consonancia. Verdaderamente mi nariz y mi paladar necesitan un descanso para salir de esta fatiga de cata en la que parecen destinados a permanecer. Al parecer y para más inri, todavía queda otra tanda final para rematar esta excursión por B'dx 2016 de segunda fila.

Un brin austère et fermé en ce moment.
Surtout animal et terreux.
Des mures et du cassis avec du cuir et
des feuilles.
Les tannins sont asséchant et la finale
montre un peu de chauffe.
