Left bank but clearly with higher merlot content. Nose has hint of smoke, leather and black tea. Palate is rounded, smooth but not a lot of fruits. Minimal tannins. Short finish. Enjoyable.

Very pretty with aromas of violets, mineral, sweet earth and cedar. As you work a bit of air into the wine it shows some green bean and tobacco leaf aromas. It is silky and vinous in the mouth with no hard edges but fantastic energy and vitality. Drinking perfectly now but in no danger of decline in the near future.

Tuscany Tasting: To mark the election of the new Pope. Some raisin, smooth and rounded, some depth, earthy, tannins all gone. The fruit is, however, a bid ‘dead’. On its way down. Only a minority was in Bordeaux.

雪茄、烟熏的波尔多陈年风味主导,不过果味依然丰富,生命力依旧旺盛。酸度漂亮,单宁柔化,虽然是传统的格拉芙做派,但如果中段口感再丰满一点,香气和结构的搭配会让人想到隆河。好状态持续了两个小时左右,不算很长,但是峰顶的水平很高。
