  Served vis-a-vis the Vieux Donjon, and not a crazy line up at alle given the cool character of VD, however, this looses out. In it self it is a very classic, vertical, cool, elegant wine, this is an Englishmans St. Emilæion and certainly not a fucking Merlot ... Will keep, but open for business

  In the bouquet dark berries, licorice and chocolate. On the palate green herbs, licorice, firm acidity, a lot of sticky tannin and a great length. The wine needs a few more years of ageing to show all of its finesse. 92 – 93+

  Opening gave a top note of violet. Then after a while deep, rich, mature notes without being excessively oaky. Lovely fruity taste with plenty of berries but with good solid structure.

  Monthly Tuesday group "The Dead Sparrow";Bordeaux 2009 vs 2010 (By JS): Second time within a month I taste/drink this wine. The previous note was not a blind note. The one below is a blind note and the wine came from another source. In the bouquet dark chocolate, licorice, dark berries and a little celery. On the palate dark berries, meaty, licorice, laurel, savory and chocolate. Good acidity and firm tannin. A lot of power for many more years of ageing.

  Concentrated bouquet with dark berries, licorice and just after uncorking hints of asphalt. On the palate loaded with dark berries, dark licorice and chocolate, firm but good acidity and tannin with still a firm bite. A wine to chew on, but also with complexity and finesse. Ok moment to try a bottle, but it can last at least another decade and maybe even two. 93+
