A very pleasant drink drink overall. Needs to be decanted as it is quite tannic. Nose was medium (less than I recall when drinking a year ago). Medium bodied in mouth and of average length. I stil have a bottle will hold out for another 6 months and try again.

My last bottle. Still delicious, and a very crowd-pleasing New World style, but I do have the impression that the wine is coming apart and is well past its prime. Oak is better integrated but still too prominent, even after 11 years. Aspect, aroma and flavor are consistent with my previous tasting notes.

Very good Cahors, very approachable now with fine tannins. Can hold but already in a very good place
