Strong a lovely nose of Cedar and cassis nose by a tinge of gym socks. The palate however tasted flat and uninteresting without the help of a good acidity backbone. Didn’t really enjoy this one especially after the 2016 le petit haut lafitte.
loads of dark berries with a tinge of coffee beans and floral notes on the nose. On the palate, good concentration of fruits skilfully balanced with the right amount of acidity and structure. However, while I highly enjoyed it and think that it’s a over performer for its vintage, i do not think that it perform to a level that warrant it’s price.

After he fourth bottle this year, I can safely say that it not the best time to pop these future beauties. Best to wait another 2 years And boy it’s gonna be so good.
