Next to the 2008 this is noticeably more syrupy. Quite a surprise. Alongside some classic aged character. Green tobacco and cigar box mixed.
Tannins are more obvious, less rounded than the 2008.
Altogether a more exciting wine, though it I expect it will be under-appreciated by most.
13%, cork.

In memoriam Bordeaux tasting for Piet Kuiper (@ RvD): In the bouquet coffee, oak, dark berries and smoke. On the palate juicy dark berries, fresh acidity and round tannin. Some bell pepper. Overall a bit disappointing. 88 - 89

Very well balanced between fruit and secondary aromas while tertiary aromas start to emerge. A bit thin if you search for criticism. Well within its trinking window and will stay there for many years.

Subtle cassis and wet earth nose. Muted fruit, soft tannins and mild acidity. Moderate length finish.

Still good and enough tannines. In the beginning somewhat closed, so we decided to decant the bottle, which helped. Classic and nice Margaux, although of a lesser vintage.
