Didn’t decant but kept open for a couple of hours. The nose was very closed throughout. Grippy tannis and good acidity. Fruit is there but a little nondescript. It wasn’t interesting or compelling for me but OK for Monday night. Will see how it goes over a few more years. Reasonable quality for the price and good food wine.
Decanted two hours. This has really transformed itself into something really good now. Earthy, musty, barnyard Bordeaux that I’m really liking now. I didn’t really think much of this until now and now I’d like to buy more and I will. Medium weight but lots of Bordeaux character now.

Closed nose but vibrant cassis and dark fruit with slightly musky and dusty mid palate. Finish is a bit short.

Shows the Pessac characteristics nicely. Best after a few hours. I liked this but won’t be buying more, I prefer Carbonnieux in this price bracket
