Superb bottle yet again. The epitome of classic Bordeaux with restrained cedar and milky, soft tannins that have all but melted into the fruit. Excellent.

This was showing brilliantly tonight and could have been easily mistaken for a wine ten years younger. Compact fruit with perfect balance of structure, tannins and fruit. Excellent.

Christmas 2010; 12/26/2010-1/5/2011 (Lille, France): Fruit and structure are pretty much melted into one smooth, gentle wine. No tannins to speak of, just soft, mature Bordeaux fruit. Nice stuff. Drink now.

Still holding up well - wonderful resolved colour. The nose has a fantastic mix of caramel with more mature St Julien notes of cedar and some funky mushroom in there. The palate is light but complex - very mature but elegant and regal. Wonderful stuff but drink this now if you have any.
