V tertiary notes on the nose. Should have been drunk 5 to 6 years ago, but quite appealing. Leather, sweet spice, tobacco notes. Very little tannin and not much acidity. Quite long length. It is improving with time but still a bit past.

Marks duckhouse – BdM CC, Meo NSG Boudots , MM CV & Pontet Canet (Marks duckhouse, Falls Church, Va): Purchased at Christies, excellent appearance, darker fruit expression initially but open up with air then a hint of raspberry and strawberry jam, a hint of flower and caramel, light and silky palate, nice balance, very pleasurable, at its peak but will stay at plateau for the next ten to fifteen years.
