This was a revelation, so light and ethereal. It’s evolved since my first bottle 2 years ago. This is so incredibly ready, fresh and drinking superbly.

From MAG, decanted 1h. Medium ruby. Tertiary, earthy nose with mushrooms, dark cherries, spices. On the body, the tannins here are not very polished. They do a much better job in recent vintages with this. So if you own this 2009 make sure you wait a little longer before drinking and give it a good decant.

By itself this was floral and delicious but next to the 2010 suchots this was just outclassed.
