Red center with tawny rims. High- intensity nose of of sautéed cherries, roasted meat, tan spices, and plums.
In the mouth, this wine was rich with rounded tannin, firm acidity, and very good length. It was fine grained but had a touch of roughness to the texture.
Drink up this dramatic wine.

Still holding well, good brick rim color, exotic spice on the nose Turkish? Asian? On the palate it is seamless with an elegance that lingers. Perfect now sitting on it's age plateau I don't think it will get better but oh so delicious now very seductive and balanced. Does throw a fair bit of sediment so stand up for several days...

Family connection to Roumier, who does pretty well with Bonnes-Mares (!), so this was particularly disappointing. VA on the nose, nasty finish.

Very attractive secondary notes of spices and roasted meat. Great density and acidity. Mostly resolved tannins. Drinking very well. Thank you, Rob.
