Purchased on release and stored at 55 degrees. Opened 1 hour ahead. Dark red fruits, green pepper, earth and leather on the nose. Feminine style, medium bodied with racy red fruits tobacco and earth. Approaching maturity? Solid 91 points

Another great showing for this Pessac. It seems to reach the plateau of maturity, but there is no rush. Lovely

Cool blue fruit and red fruit , tobacco leaf, mocha and the always very pretty note of cigar box.
Silky wine but the tannins and acidity are very much in place to lift the finish and ensure this has a long life ahead
