    May 8, 2018 - Un vieux bordeaux tertiaire et indestructible (ou presque, 1990…), qui offre des tanins polis et policés, une fine mineralité saline, et de beaux arômes evolués sur le tabac, le cuir, le bois mouillé, la réglisse, le poivron compoté et les fruits a noyau. En bouche, rondeur d’un millesime puissant et assoupli par l’âge, et fraicheur de la finale font de ce modeste carbonnieux sur une grande année un joli Bordeaux au charme suranné.
    En tout cas il goutait étonnamment bien!

    October 12, 2014 - Garnet with orange rim. Nose of tobacco, cedar and leather. Taste let this done a bit, thinner midpalate, lite aftertaste. 92 nose, 85 taste=88

    May 24, 2013 - Parfaite maturité et excellence. Rubis profond, cèdre, tabac, fumé, fruit discret mais présent. Bonne longueur et présence soyeuse en bouche. Juste ce qu'il faut d'acidité, équilibre. Très bon vin. Aussi bon (ou presque) que le 82 pour moi.

    June 2, 2012 - A "lost" bottle found in my cellar, hopefully the last, but a nice experience despite that the bottle is older than its structure allows it to be. A good claret, earthy aromas, a little musty. Fruit is fading but it held well together. Should have been drunk a few years back.
