Nice fully mature right bank - not sure about the blend here but seems Cab Franc dominated. Reminded me a bit of a mini Cheval Blanc. Nice but probably time to drink up. The bottle was probably not the best provenance needs to be added.

Nez explosif avec un fruité bien mûr, des notes florales et fumées, et un très léger sous-bois. Très agréable ! Très belle bouche avec de la densité, de la générosité et des tannins polis. Finale plus fraîche avec une très légère sensation tannique en dégustation pure (imperceptible à table). Bonne présence.
Un régal avec un vin qui m'a semblé en pleine forme !

Bordeaux 1989 - 30years on in large formats (Luzern): From Magnum. Really strong showing here. The wine had lots of energy, spices and forest floor. More than held its own in a flight with Petrus and VCC.

Rubinorange kjerne, mursteinsvandig kant. Veldig parfyrmert uttrykk. Tørket frukt, lakris, tobakk. Mynte, ørlite hint av stall. Mye syre. Tobakk, parfyme, lakris. Besnærende. Lang. Fremdeles mye igjen.
