In typical years, I would expect a more tannic wine where the 2011 was lacking. The 2011 is much lighter in mouth feel with minimal length on the palette. In the glass, legs were hardly noticeable. This was my last of 6 bottles bought on release and over this time, it has not improved over the years from the first bottle I tried 10 years ago.

2008 Château Le Gay Pomerol

My 3rd bottle and still, a difficult vintage resulting in a disappointing result. Thin at best and lacking length.
