What a pleasure to open this 2009 in such a perfect evolutive spot.
Opened 3 hours in advance, just poring a little wine to open the neck of the bottle. No decanting. Served in Zalto Burgundy stem to let the wine express itself.
A nose opening with secondary scents of mature red and black berries, sage, and rosemary, a touch of china an liqorice. Slight balsamic in the end.
during the evening it showed the more tertiary notes, getting a bit more earthy.
Complex and with many layers rising one after the other.
Velvet mouthfeel assisted by a nice a acidity. Very elegante tannins which were well integrated.
A great showing for this 2009

Right Bank Bordeaux Tasting: Tasted single blind. Young. Pure grapey fruit. Gobs of dark fruit. Touch of sweetness on the backend.

Pop n poured. Nice dark fruit medium acidity silky tannins. Some cedar. Probably could have used a decant but drinking very well right out of the bottle

Really like this and where this is right now. Showing the fruit this had when it was young, after some air also showing secondary notes. Big fan. Drink now or in the coming few years. I'll keep a few to see where it ends
