In good shape. Dark, almost monumental fruit, plummy charachter, integrated oak. Right side bordeaux is not my thing, but this seems to be a nice example.

Ren rød farge uten tegn til aldring. Nydelig duft, innsmigrende og åpen, paprika, pepper, blåplommer, jordbunn, edelt fat. Flott balanse i munn, mye fruktdybde i anslag, topp syre/sødmebalanse innover, passelig snerp i finish. Drikker svært godt nå, et funn til prisen.

A Long Wine Night (Various locations): Pop and poured. Appearance is clear, deep intensity, garnet colour. Nose is clean, pronounced intensity, with aromas of sweet earthy barnyard and dark fruit. On the palate, medium+ acidity, smooth tannins, full body, long finish. Flavours of plush dark fruit, blackberries, dark cherries, vanilla oak, and sweet earthiness. Plush and rich mouth-feel, but somehow seems a little rough-edged. Tasted smoother and more balanced on day 2. So I think this is drinking well now, but will be even better with maybe another 2-3 years.

Pleasant claret now in a very good drinking window. Still lots primary aromas, more red than dark berries mixed with lots of vanilla. On the palate medium bodied and good acidity. I'm missing some precision and clarity and it could be that the bottle was not 100% flawless. Otherwise it would have scored 2-4 points more.

Le Week-end des Grands Crus (Bordeaux): 65M, 35CF.
Still quite dark colour.
Leather, minerality. Needs a further 3 years to become more balanced.
