Peaty nose, Peat on palate. Whisky lovers take note. Fine balance. Medium body. Tannins are integrated, ready to drink. Typically dry complex Bordeaux style. Excellent Bordeaux on a budget!

PnP. Showing some brown hues. Nose has improved and now shows the more typical Bordeaux cedar, pencil shavings and tobacco notes. Tobacco, tart blackberry flavors. Soft, approachable, agreeable, but a a bit thin for my tastes.

Slightly improved from last time I had this a year ago, but still not a fan of this wine. A bit of barnyard and rather mellow. Drank 1/2 a bottle and had a headache the next day. One bottle left.

Great nose but a bit thinner than expected in the mouth. Still good, but won't be getting better at this point.

Drinking quite well at this point. 30 minute minimum decant, this is nice with soft balanced fruits. Very food friendly. Drink up!
