88 Points

Tuesday, November 6, 2018 - Consistent with previous note 2 years ago - the wine has barely moved. Still plenty of wood spices and oak here joining the rich dark fruit. I would think this must have been at least 70% new barrels, unfortunately the Chateau does not provide the same kind of detailed production information as for the Grand Vin.
Would wait another two years, but have my doubts that the fruit of a second wine can absorb this amount of oak.... Interestingly enough the Chateau suggested a drinking window of 2012-2017 at bottling...
