From half bottle this was expressive. It has an intense core of dark plum and blackberry fruit. There's a touch of cedar and leather and some sweet tobacco. It is creamy and rich, with layers of flavour and good tannic chew just under the flesh.

Tasted next to 2013. Less expressive and ripe compared to some of the right bank wines at this tasting. Really spicy as well. Good acidity, polished tannins, well balanced. Not super complex, but very good. 91-92+

Medium-bodied, soft and polished, the wine isn't deep, but it's forward, soft, forward and expressive, making it a pleasure to enjoy young.

UGC Tasting Amsterdam 2/5/2018: I noticed a somber colour, lovely acidity, also some sweetness, juicy, tasty and some complexity; I like this wine.
