Fully mature plum/dark cherry fruit, carries through on nose and palate. Fills out with air. Food-friendly acidity. Good depth and length. Excellent. Tannic. Time to drink.

From a top vintage. Wine still show good color, lots of cedar aroma, medium length, good complexity, classic pauillac. Should hold for another 3 to 5 years.

Delicious wine. Initially notes of dark and black fruit and violets. With some time resolved to red fruit, cherry, berry and lots of cedar plus some herbs. Became more youthful with some time open. Delicious with the herbal, rack of lamb and the gold potato with herbs.
Drink now.

Medium-dark red color ( surprisingly youthful for a 20 year old Cru Bourgeois). Vanilla, smoke, plum, and a hint of herb in the bouquet. Soft, delightfully mature Pauillac. At its peak. Ripe fruit, medium-bodied, good length, complex, round flavor. Charming Pauillac! I don’t think I’ve ever put these two words together before. Perhaps the high percentage of Merlot used at this property is responsible. A Cru Bourgeois of Grand Cru quality. This is my last of two bottles. Wish I’d bought more!

Typé Pauillac. Belle maturité. Pour 10-12 ans encore de fruits. Beau Q/P.
