Just superb. Of course, 2007 was great year, but this wine delivered across the board. Powerful yet elegant - perfect drinking window right now. Brought to a restaurant, while previously decanting at home (pouring the wine back into the bottle). Exceeded expectations.

Big wine. Not necessarily my style but this is well made, well integrated and it has quite a bit of complexity. It actually feels a lot younger. Reminded me of Pax.

My only complaint is that is seemed really young. Drank alongside a bunch of other older, French wines, and this came across like a barrel sample. But, once everyone gave it some time, they all liked it. Seems like it has a long life ahead of it.

Served with Thanksgiving dinner, fruit and tannins were well integrated. Guessing this would have been a beast if drunken earlier, but very pleasant currently.

Great wine at peak. Full red & blue fruit with hints of leather and pepper. Paired surprisingly well with Thai food
