Apple, lemon, bit of baked spice, full body that is rich and round in the mouth.

My #1 and Tie for 1st in group of 4 versus "05 Ch. La Croix St. Georges, "05 La Gomerie, and '05 Leoville Barton. Garnet with thin translucent rim. Rich dark fruit, spices, on the nose, a bit of oak, blackberries, and baked blueberries on the palate covering the tannins entirely. Drank over 4 hour evening and it never let up continuing to come on till the end. Fine to medium tannins are still present. Medium + finish. Excellent wine which is approachable with a decant but has more years. So bummed I don't have more of these...

I was getting faint hints of licorice, smoke, and one in our group was getting some latent dark chocolate notes. This was post 2.5 hours in decanter and another 15-20 in the glass.
