Really lovely, very ripe with rich dark fruit, but still very clearly classic Bdx with leather, tobacco, and a slightly dried, earthy character. Baked plums and dried cherries galore, great weight without feeling even remotely heavy or boozy. That slight "dried fruit" tone in Bdx isn't always my jam, but here it wasn't overly austere. Not a miraculous wine, just well-priced and delicious.
