Decanted for 1.5 hours, drank over the next 5 hours. The first glass tasted out of balance/hollow, with less fruit left than expected, but present acid and grainy tannin still present. By hour 3, it tasted more integrated and elegant, but a touch simple, with notes of sour red fruit, but only a touch of tertiary characteristics. This was much better with aged manchego cheese, and should be enjoyed with food.
Overall, this wine was #3 out of #3 when compared to a 2009 Chateau Pedesclaux and a 2003 Grand Puy Lacoste.

Mørke bær, blå plommer, litt solbær med hint av lær, lakris, fat og våt skogbunn. Fortsatt skarpe tanniner og medium syre, som smeltet flott inn med okse indrefilet og fløtesaus, men som viste seg igjen etter maten.

This was a charming, graceful, old-world wine, and an especially good deal at the $33 I paid for it at Spec's in Fort Worth. I wish I'd bought every bottle at that price!

Splash decanted. Followed half the bottle over 3 hours. Plush red fruit mixed with gravel. Fairly classic Pauillac, elegant, restrained and a touch simple. I'd like to try this again in 2026+.
