From 375. Great drinking young Bordeaux. Ruby red color, red and black fruits, cherry, raspberry, rhubarb, blackberry. It has the amazing acidity that I find in many wines from this vintage.

Just fantastic. Feel a bit bad drinking so early but couldn’t help it with the limited cellar space. Like drink velvet, so soft and comforting. Plenty of dark fruit, acidity with little grip for such a young wine.

黑醋栗、黑莓的成熟果味，香草、甘草、泥土、皮革和烟丝的气息，拘谨与严肃的展开方式。良好的酸度与强壮的单宁搭建了清晰挺拔的结构，只是还过于年轻，不够宽广和舒展。随着醒酒，出现更多利口酒和雪茄的香气变化，复杂度的提升拉开了酒在口中的层次格局，展现出良好的陈年潜力。92-93

Black and blue fruit aromas on opening. Red currant and coffee notes emerge with time in the glass. Elegant palate with medium persistence. Solid acidity. Very nice and enjoyable right now, but my palate preference is early maturity. This is not quite there but still lovely.

Blueberries, blackberries, clear emphasis on fruit, some oak coming out mid nose. Medium bodied, hugely structured and very dry palate. Keep for several more years.
