The nose showed ripe strawberry with cedar and earth. On the palate, I found raspberry with tealeaf and wood tones. It was beautifully balanced with a gorgeous finish filled of red fruits and a hint of pepper.

Aroma of cedar and cassis. Palate shows a classic, and well structured, Bordeaux profile of cassis, tobacco, and pencil lead. Medium finish. While not a profound wine, it's a well made one. And while it's not a bargain at $27, I would take it over virtually every Bordeaux selling for an equal or higher price.

The last of three bottles. Wish I had more. We were given this one after "helping" with the '07 harvest. Drinking beautifully now.

This one is almost as good as the 2007. Probably good for another few years. Definitely decant and filter

Loved this wine a couple of years ago. Hoping it's in a dumb phase right now or perhaps an off bottle. Very thin and vegetal.
