95 Points

Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - From a 375; Purchased recently this wine was in pristine condition and was dark ruby with a slightly brownish rim. This wine was clearly in the WOW (95+ points) range from the moment it was decanted. It had the classic tar and rose aromas but with something else perhaps leather and minerals. It was outstanding from start to finish. I can only imagine how tannic this wine may have been in its youth because it was still gently tannic. [$$$ purchased from Premier Cru, the collection of Andrew Mark Levitt (stamped on the bottle); Whoever bought the 750s before I got them better open a bottle of this with me. ;) ]
