October 10, 2016 - Had this last night. While it was a good wine it is a bit past it's prime. Cedar, spice, dark fruits, and some dried raisins.

June 13, 2013 - Good showing old claret.
Very nice second wine.
Typical mature Bordeaux nose, with stable and pencil led, cedar and dry grass.
The smell of France!
On the palate this wine is soft and very mature, with delicate and perhaps a bit thin red fruit, really good balance with good acid level.
Time to drink up however, as this will not last much longer.
Overall a bit thin & light, but very enjoyable never the less.
