Topper uit Saint-Julien. Nu nog behoorlijk levendig. Zachte tannines, mooie zuren, stallucht, lichte tabak. Het meeste fruit is er al af, maar wat kersen, pruimen en cassis zijn nog steeds aanwezig. De wijn heft veel elegantie en een zachte structuur. Twee of drie jaar eerder gedronken was misschien beter geweest

Initially closed,but opened up some after 30 minutes. Very earthy, but much of tannins and acidity are gone, taking away the wine's structure. What is left is still a nice wine, but not one that will improve. Perhaps this wine peaked a few years ago,

There's absolutely nothing wrong with this wine, and that's exactly what's wrong with it. It lacks character, it could be any - well-made - Bordeaux superieur. At half this price-range, better wines can be bought. Decent wine, poor PQR.
