Ex-Chateau bottles. 1 hr decant. Cedar, cassis, bell pepper, black cherry, leather, graphite, cinnamon. A lot of similarities with the 2010 Latour - cedary, cassis and graphitey. More powerful and inky than the 2010 Latour, but not as refined.
Second bottle I opened exhibited a slight horse sweat that goes away after swirling. Also decanted the second bottle for 1 hr
2 hr decant. No flavour at all on first pour - needs heavy decant. Nice perfume of dried flowers. Cassis, sandalwood, leather, graphite, mint, blueberry, walnut. Very silky and refined today.
