In half bottle, without special preparation (unfortunately).
Very woody nose, vanilla, spices and black fruits.
On the palate, once the wood dissipates, the wine shows good potential with a very dense but well balanced mixture of spices and black fruits. It's still warm and woody like a Bordeaux drunk too early can be. Good balance paving the way for a warm yet tannic finish.
It is urgent to wait, but good Bordeaux.

Better than expected. Ripe, but decidedly balanced with some herbal notes. Mix of red fruits and flint. Quite steuctired but nicely balanced with freshness and fruit. I suspect this will age nicely. Tanninc quality is a bit coarse and blocky. Notnsure if this will soften or become an issue with time.

It was a little tight initially. After about two hours the cassis showed up. This wine has a lot of character. Wine for grown ups

嗅觉上果味比较成熟,除了黑醋栗之类的黑果外,还有些覆盆子之类的红果,带有轻微的挥发酸,后段有干草本,薄荷碎之类的。入口酸度比较高挑,酒体中,结构中,单宁中,不粗糙也不细腻。红黑相间的果味比较匀称,还有些甘草、香料和泥土味。88-89/100
