Gang of 4 in Covid19 times; St. Emilion (@ RW): The bouquet has dark berries and oak, but is also slightly musty. On the palate a touch of sweetness and red berry fruits. The musty impressions become more and more dominant.

Weekly tasting group RWP #237: Bordeaux blends worldwide (@ BS): Mature bouquet with coffee, tobacco, chocolate, cinnamon and autumn impression. On the palate dark berries, vanilla, red bell pepper, a touch of sweetness, good acidity and slightly sticky tannin. An elegant and lean wine which is at its peak now.

Acceptable quality St-Emilion with medium ruby color, reasonably intense nose showing fair complexity of blackcurrant, blackberry and plum, savory, wet leaves and forest floor, liquorice, toast and farmyard. Fairly high in acidity, the tannin is robust and grippy, with a fairly full-bodied structure, showing reasonably intense flavors of blackberry and plum, cloves, wet leaves and forest floor. The wine has a fairly short finish and a bit unbalanced as I think the acidity is a bit too high, without the fruit and ripeness to support, and also a general impression of not having sufficient ripeness. Ready to drink now and not intend for further ageing.
