Can it really be 9 years since my last btl? In an excellent place: classic with charcoal, cedar, blackberry and raspberry on the nose. On the palate: dense blackberry and raspberry, soft cedar and charcoal. Lovely.

Still extremely young and primary. The colour was purple/red. Decanted for 10 hours and was more enjoyable. I would wait at least 5 more years. I wonder how much time the grand vin needs!

Deep red, hints of purple, not totally clear. PnP with a bit of time in glass. Bursting with cherry and some strawberry. Leather and hints of dried leaves. Tannins mostly integrated.

From memory, this was straight from the bottle without decanting and was immediately a delight to drink. Everything works together showing good depth and balance.

Loaded with fruit- still balanced. Flavours unsubtle and punchy. Tannins starting to fade. Getting pale at the edges. Drink now
