In der Nase schon deutliche, aber angenehme Reifetöne. Am Gaumen sehr reif, fest und kompakt, aber etwas eindimensional. Tiefe, dunkle Frucht. Tolle Länge, die allerletzte Komplexität fehlt aber etwas.

Coravined the first half of the bottle on day 1 - was not impressed: seemed pretty flat, not offering much. Drank the other half on day 2: was a nice, profound wine; the CF / M / oak was well integrated and showed some development. In my view still at the beginning of its drinking window with some decanting. Will probably improve with time.

My very last bottle and it still shone through. Give it 20 mins and it will blossom. Straight from the bottle with very nice nose. Great on the palate with rounded tannins.

A fat hedonistic Saint Emilion, unfortunately the last of 4 bottles.
