Thursday, January 31, 2019 - 13% ABV. Deep red with no lightening at the rim. The first bottle was corked, but the second displayed aromas of cassis, leather, pipe tobacco and aromatic herbs. On the palate, there is medium body, lots of minerals, blackcurrants, red cherries and earth. Still lots of tannin on the long, refreshing finish. This is just entering its early drinking window, and I suspect that more bottle age will be quite beneficial here. A classic and thoroughly enjoyable—if somewhat old school—Bordeaux. 92.
