  Day three opened bottle notes. Bottle was kept corked and refrigerated lying on its side with no leakage.
  
  Bitter and quite unbalanced today. Wine could use smoothing elements. It has also lost all freshness. Not going to rate so as not to damage reviews. I would consume fully after opening.

  The wine was sampled thanks to Leo who tried to show us a broad sampling of Bordeaux wines. This was the first in the lineup.
  
  Dense and bright green in flavors, the wine seems underdeveloped. As far as I can conclude the wine is all about the aromatics. They are huge and that is an understatement. Semilion wins here aromatically. Floral and exotic with scents of sulphur waste lines and flowers that are simply so sweet that it teases one to taste.
  
  The let down is in mouth where the wine has acidity the overwhelms the fruit. Driven to be aged but simply too young right now. Difficult to hate.

  Fresh, juicy and crisp, with nice shot of pomelo on those nose and palate, making this a fun, summer pool-side sipper. 86 Pts
