Exactly where you want this wine to be. Noble cask, leather, caramel, chocolate, tobacco, toast, roast aromas. A pleasure! Drink now and over the coming 3-4 years.

Good fruit, black currant, blackberry, dark cherry, herbal notes, leather, tobacco, gingerbread, and spices, with medium-level acidity, round, well-integrated tannin, and good length. Classic profile, with good balance and average concentration. The tannin turns a little rustic on day two, but other than that the wine still drinks well the second night. Classic Bordeaux. Drink now.

Not a match with food, but knew one guest wanted red (and prefers Bordeaux). Some cassis and plum, ripe ‘00 fruit, but the charred oak notes really dominate. We’ll see if time helps but hard to enjoy now. B-/C+

Very much enjoyed my last two bottles of this wine. Still some fruit, very smooth and drank very well. Certainly one to drink now.
