Good bricking on the rim, with hints of plum, truffle and fig on the nose. A long finish of fig, bilberry, raspberry, char, and milk chocolate. Nice complement to tonight's steak dinner.

P & P. Tight at first not much fruit. With a little open time the fruit began to emerge. The last glass 3 hours later was very good, wonderful dark sweet fruit, medium/full body , slight bricking. Tannins are soft and nose is very open. This bottle is younger than i expected for it’s 28 years . Happy to have a couple more.

Fantastic nose. No bricking but beautiful deep color. Complex flavors of black fruit, leather, graphite.
Fresh, concentrated and sophisticated.

Another Saturday at Chevalier...Mostly Blind (Chevalier Fine Wines - Chicago IL): Open and decanted several hours before tasting. Ripe black fruit with good spice and leather. Good overall, with VG balance as well as moderate weight and density.
