Nice surprise as part of a mixed lot. Good wine with some power and structure left for a monday evening with a ridiculous low price tag (12 €) 15 years after the crop. Petit and honest Bordeaux ! Label says: "Cuvée des gentilhommes".

Day 1, drank from the bottle, strong graphite covers everything else, a hint of cassis perhaps, feels like very old Bordeaux, surprising for a 2007 vintage. Day 2, fruit starting to come through, but finish becoming a bit tannic.
