Tasted blind, nose was quit subdued at first. It tasted ripe, lot of dark fruits, smoke and excellent acidity, certainly a great pedigree but did get it wrong, beautiful bottle but it will need another few Years to my taste.

Nose quiet expressive with a hint of cigar box, taste quiet young for his age with good acidity, red fruit almost like a left Bank. It does lack intensity and the finishing a bit short !!

Tasted with some Bordeaux friends including an Owner of classified 2sd cru of Medoc. The wine has shaded a fair bit of its tannins, very expressive on the nose, taste show very good dark fruits, spices and excellent balance with medium plus finish. We finished it very quickly. Pleasantly surprised by it and glad I still have a full case of this wine in my cellar.
