Opaque qui tend vers le violet, avec son lot de résidus, normal pour avoir siester 20 ans. Les tannins ont disparus, bien fait de ne pas attendre bien longtemps encore. C'est rond, c'est rempli de saveurs... 👌

The wine has matured but still retains fruit - blueberry, blackberry with little to no secondary aromas or taste, attesting to the longevity of the 2000s. It is well integrated with resolved tannins - better with foods - and will develop further. Not a big wine or complex to begin with if i recall well from earlier bottles, but very correct and enjoyable.

Good BDX but a little past prime drink age. Once it opened up it showed hints of it's former character. Inky almost violet hue, floral notes. Complex yet fair balance on the palate, slightly flat but still a linger on the finish. Berry, earthy tones. Wish I would have paid this more attention and drank this two years ago. Overall still good though. If you have it, drink it while you still can~

Nose is a very pleasing dark cherry fruit. The flavor is good and very smooth, but the finish is short. Flavor is characterized by herbal and fruit qualities (strawberry and cherry). Overal the flavor profile is flat. The wine is still worth drinking but is past its prime. If you still have a bottle then drink immediately.

Still very good. We tried different cheese with it and it was just not working.
