Not bad, but was expecting better in a really good year for Medoc. you might as well drink it, its not going to get any better. Oh, you want to know what it tastes like...like a Cru Bourgeois...fairly acidic, with subtle fruit. Not much of a finish. Medium bodied.

Medium ruby with brick-red flanks. Regional nose. Obvious oak, but not overdone. Earthy. The fruit seems modest for the vintage and there is a sense of dried-out weeds. Fortunately, these vegetal notes disappear and the ripeness of the vintage begins to show through on the nose. Fullish body. The oak has a lesser impact on the palate than the nose suggests. Initially, a bit lean for the vintage and a bit loose at the finish, but develops positively to show an increased concentration of fruit and a nice sweetness mid-palate. Very good.
