  Definitely bringing some secondary notes to the table, more dried plums and raisins at this point. Lighter mouthfeel for sure with a nice smooth finish. There was a slight bit of tannins left. Felt like this is a couple years over the peak, but very good especially considering the price point ($125).

  For son’s 18th Bday. Just fantastic and fully mature. Versus a 2003 Cos D’Estournel, everyone agreed it was as good or better.

  Glycerin. Chewy. Proportionate tension. Mint. Chocolate and cherries surmaturité. Thriving tannin formation. Decades left ahead of this.

  Still big, but it has smoothed out. Full mouth feel, dark fruits and the Eucalyptus with a long finish.

  Gift from son in law and daughter, from winery on their honeymoon in 2005 ie cellared carefully for 14+ years. Decanted 2 hours+ and showed marked improvement. Very good mature wine that’s ready for drinking and can probably go a few more years. Dark mature fruit, black Licorice and savory notes with a light chalky mouthfeel.
