1998 Clos Triguedina Cahors

Maturing ruby colour with smoke, damp earth, blackberry, liquorice, slightly musty attic nose. The palate is mature, round, has decent intensity with the fruit dropping off slightly and the tannin supple and integrated. Has matured beautifully into a Bordeaux lookalike, but will be on the slide in a year or two. Drink up.

Dark crimson colour, looking robust. Notes of truffle, dark-berried fruits, hint of forest floor intertwined with cedar. Powerful palate, complex, but rather chunky and unresolved at present. It will no doubt reveal itself over the next decade, but ever so slightly lacks finesse.

Showing beautifully, with the fruit, tannin and acidity in great balance, with real push and pull on the palate. Satisfies the mind and taste buds.
