decanted 4 hours and drank over 2 hours. I would decant 7+ hours if you open. Once the wine opened, after 6 hours, some asphalt, dark fruits, and a some heavy clove. Early on had a green streak going..The last sip was by far the best, polished and rich, a really good St Emilion... I would persoanlly hold, but with a longer decant, a very enjoyable wine. But for less than $100 other Right Banks are better ..

served 1 hour after decanting. First whiff was very fruit forward with exotic vanilla, but closed down 30 minutes later, and opened up again after 2 hours in decanter, with more smoke.

Seamless polished style with high quality oak and deep mix of red and blue fruits. Fine cashmir tannins. Accessible now—but doesn’t have the complexity of an aged bdx. But I think this will age well given the excellent balance.
