Decent enough Bdx, and more life in it than the bottle note says ( I'd venture it could still squeeze a couple more in) but as others have noted, its spectacularly overpriced for a decent workaday bottle of Bdx. C'est la vie.

Very good wine here although the price is probably not entirely justified. Good earthy structure but with a soft mouthfeel - I would guess there is quite a bit of merlot in here. Grainy tannins work well with the red fruit and the finish speaks of a wine made with quality ingredients. Looks like it is aging quite quickly so I would drink now or in the next 2 years. Good, but pricey at £25.

Still alive, quite pleasant, more evolved (but strangely more austere) than the 2006 Sociando-Mallet it was tasted alongside.
