Essentially, perfect claret. Drunk 2 bts with rack of lamb etc. Wine took 20 mins or so to get going but then was dense, had excellent fruit balance, all the classic notes: tarmac, leather; great power for a St Estephe.

Was delicious - classic floral Margaux with refined leather and black fruits; super smooth. Sediment not excessive. Possibly drunk this 5 years too late but it was my only one!
