I was worrying this was past drinking window with no fruits. I'm pleasantly surprised this bottle still show good enough fruits (last bottle was in 2015) - I would say new world palates would find there's not much fruit. If you are used to old world, you'll be fine, but definitely drink up!

Drank well. Red fruit, currant, tobacco, lead pencil, tobacco and a lovely Bordeaux perfume. Again we had with roast, herbal chicken and it is a winning wine.
Drink now.

Another mediocre cork. I thought this would be undrinkable but it was simply unmemorable. Better with roast chicken but behind the other bottles. No score. These are from Wine Connection, for $12.41 / bottle.

Still drinking lovely. Red fruit, currant, tobacco, lead pencil, tobacco and a lovely Bordeaux perfume. Drank well with a slow-roasted, herbal duck.

This bottle was superb. Notes of red currant, lead pencil, tobacco and a lovely Fromsac perfume. So elegant with our roast herbal chicken.
Drink now
