Monthly Tasting Group EEE Sept 2018; A random set of wines (@ PV): Ripe dark berries and herbs in the bouquet. On the palate juicy berry fruits, a touch of sweetness, good acidity, beautiful oak and round tannin with still a soft bite. No real hurry drinking this.

decanted 3 hours before drinking. Decent 2nd label but not much primary fruit left, so don't hesitate to drink this up. 2nd labels usually have pressed wine added for structure but that can take over once the primary fruit of the wine subsides.

Old wine living in my cellar for more than a decade. Dry and austere, however, retaining former elegance.

57% CS, 29% M and 14% PV.
Increasingly brownish rim but still deeply colored at the center.
Cabernet perfume, leafy, with pleasing maturity aromas very much present.
Integrated structure. Smooth but still substantial. Red fruit, floral, violet, leafy, barnyard.
Perfectly ready. Removed from Chateau's cellar and drank during a dinner at Lagrange. Unforgettable experience. 90.

Not profound but a very pleasant and rewarding drink with everything in balance.
