February 6, 2022 - Much better than the notes below. Shows what happens when you leave good Bordeaux. All the elements below came together into top claret.

July 27, 2012 - With a promising nose of currants and tobacco, it felt a little restrained on the palate on after opening, so we then decanted 2 hours before tasting it again. Good move, the silkiness of this wine, while still a little tannic, is amazing. It kept its currant nose on the palate, has a very long finish. Still fruity but starting to display some vanilla and tobacco, the remaining tannins will help it peak in a couple years i would say.
That was a good buy - will have my other bottles later but it drinks well now if decanted/aerated for a bit. -
