  After 8 hr decant. Not much of a nose, but impression is pleasant and fresh, light weight. A bit of a tannic bite at the end. Almost like an aperitif wine. Held up well enough to a beef tenderloin.

  Decanted 3 hours and drank over a wonderful dinner. The nose is amazing, so much leather, chocolate and cassis. Dark fruits on the palate and plenty of Pessac earthiness. Long finish. Excellent stuff

  Tastes exactly like you’d think a 2002 La Mish would taste like. Hoisin on the palate, mature but still lively. Not large but complete. Drink or hold.

  Lovely nose on opening. Tobacco and loam complement red berry fruits. Savory palate with medium+ length and finish. Fine tannins balance out the acidity. Plenty of life left.
