Like many of the other notes here, this was a very good bottle in a great place. Mature, but with plenty of purple fruit, herby undergrowth and tobacco, a touch of fennel/aniseed as it opened up. No hurry to drink these up, but super enjoyable right now

plenty of fruit intensity here, tasted next to the '99 and its showing considerably younger. loads of tannins yet. delicious and can still age, perhaps in time will gain some of the complexity of the '99.

Lovely nose - warm, spicy, smoky, note of dried fruit. On the palate quite complex with good acidity, noes of leather, tobacco, spices, but lacking a bit of fruit. Quite drying towards the long finish. Drink up. 91-93

PnP, served blind to me. Very pretty wine. Open for business. Polished with soft tannins. Lots of red and black plum fruit. Still some oak tones on the nose. Good acidity. I guessed 2000 right bank and don’t feel too bad about it. Good bottles have 5-10 more years to fully resolve and should fare well.
