Friday, May 12, 2017 - The second wine you seldom see and nobody seems to talk about. But this was really impressive, showing genuine Mouton character and way more intrigue than the Clerc-Milon. (I guess it ought to, for the price.) Funky aroma with a bit of game alongside the typical Pauillac cedar and lead pencil scents. Same story on the palate, red fruited and cedary with some nuttiness too. Lots going on. Better than many of the grand vins today. Certainly more of an open book, which helps.
