• Mimesis Likes this wine: 92 points

  December 24, 2021 - What all Bordeaux wants to be when it grows up. Fully mature, with all the rough edges polished to a light sheen: some bricking, yet plenty of remaining color. Flavor first seemed faded, but opened over the next hour to a warm, sustained glow.
  
  The style is balanced - neither showy nor austere. I admit that I've added a couple of points in homage to this wine's perseverance. It's a rare pleasure to drink a thoroughly aged claret in good condition. If you have any, I wouldn't wait. Like a fine sunset, I doubt it will last much longer.
