Cork was in great shape. Poured the glass and let us sit for ten minutes. A bit of the classic burgundy smell. Taste was still acidic, some tannins, well integrated, young red berries, a solid lingering aftertaste . I think it is at its peak, or near. A great wine and I wish I had more . I had it with a sautéed crispy skin salmon. Perfect.

Very delicious. Deep ruby red, vibrant, cassis, coffee, agree with previous notes. It has more years to go Unfortunately this is my last bottle.
