Bright ruby color. The nose is quite open, with red fruits, dried soil, and game. Great structured palate, with the fruit backed by integrated tannins with rustic undertones. Great persistence. This is a great showing for this wine.

I have now had 3 bottles from a well stored case and I like this wine but stop short of some of the high scores - at least right now. I have had one bottle PNP, one bottle with a 4 hour slow ox and one with a 24 hour slow ox. I would say the 24 hour was the best of the 3 due to some shutting down for the other two during the evening. Ripe cherry on open, and although this fills out with more air it to me shows much more mineral and elegance than some of the reviews I have read. Good with food, and certainly a very nice wine, it just feels more like a 1er than a GC in this vinage. Maybe in a phase, or maybe it just doesn't hit the spot for me but I do like the T-M wines very much. A-

Drunk as part of a 6 bottle night. The only wine not opened in advance. P&P, it smelled like we had dived into an iron mine. Surprisingly intense mineral in the nose and mouth. With time, high-toned red fruit plus tannins balance this out. Very enjoyable way to close the evening. With carpaccio from 60-day sirloin.

TM Mazoyeres vs Charmes Dinner. Appearance is clear, pale intensity, ruby colour. Legs. Nose is clean, medium intensity, with aromas of tertiary minerally stony earth, slightly dark ripe red cherries. Developed. On the palate, dry, just about high acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), integrated medium tannins, medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of sweet spices, sweet earth, ripe red cherries, dark red cherries. Long finish with lingering sweet spice. Very good quality. But about time to drink up this ripe vintage wine in my opinion.

This is not getting better vs last bottle I had. Still a good wine but not worth the price paid
