My own fault this one. I’ve been sat on it for 10 years. You can tell it’s well made, clean acidity, soft tannin, velvety mouthfeel. But devoid of fruit. Maybe corked slightly, if not then definitely too old.

Opened the bottle 1 hour before drinking. High quality cork. Deep dark red with brown reflexes. Immediately ready with notes of forestfloor, mushrooms, some cigarbox and dark red fruits. Tannins perfectly integrated and resolved now. Very smooth finish. Pefect drinking window right now, no need to wait...This sadly was my last bottle, now i will start with the `05 s of this.

Cool and refreshing with mature vegetal notes and some beautifully understated leafy dark fruits. Has great persistence and confidence on the palate. In a great place now.

Surprisingly deep colour--if no longer bright. Tarry, earthy nose. Palate soft and integrated. Really rather enjoyable. Doesn't really identify its Graves origin.
