Very nice aged Bordeaux with elegant fruit and good complexity. Way better than a bottle drunk 3 years ago. PnP and drank with grilled burgers garnished with winter chanterelle mushrooms. Drink or hold.

PNP. Lots of crystals on cork, very little sediment. Dusty cherry, cigar box, and leather. Fruit is giving way to the acidity, drink over the next five years.

A little thin upon opening, it put on weight over the next hour or so. Red fruit, floral, some earth. Better with the roast, herbal duck.
It is hard to follow 2 Margaux be the 3rd wine in the lineup.

Give this an hour and enjoy this mature Bordeaux. Lots of graphite and cigar box; muted fruit. Drink or hold.

Red fruit, floral notes and some earth. Interestingly, not more developed than in Jan 2016. Perhaps needs more time? Or maybe this is simply the wine.
A good pairing with our roast, herbal chicken.
Drink now or hold.
