September 7, 2018 - I am definitely 94+ on this one. 2-4 more years and it will blossom into 95-96. Found a case for 75usd pr. bottle.
Overall - Great and embracing. Best Pauillac for the money I have found in many years. Delicate and vibrant nose. Ripe dark berries and cedar. So alive and hard to let go. Palate is what Pauillac does best. Graphite, light toast and blackberries. Silky tannins and just wondeful to drink. On the elegant side. If you can find it, buy a case and enjoy over the next 8-10 yrs. If you are looking for an affordable and drinkable Pauillac. You found it.8 people found this helpful 10,458 views
