  De nouveau cette bouteille a fait sensation et obtenu le même score qu'en 11/2022.Allez voir mon commentaire de cette époque je ne puis que confirmer les impressions transcrites ce jour là.Toujours aussi impressionnant pour un millésime somme tout moyen.

  This 90% Merlot has certainly hit its stride. Everything an everyday Bordeaux from pomerol can be - sweet fruit, very careful balance and nice acidity to keep it, well, Bordeaux.
  
  Drinking very well, give it an hour or two of air.

  Wow quelle surprise !!! Un grand vin à pleine maturité,avec un bouquet sublime de crasse de fer,de fruits rouges,de pruneau qui embraye sur une bouche tactile,veloutée,élégante et soyeuse.L'équilibre entre alcool et acidité est remarquable.Belle longueur sans être phénoménale ce qui est normal vu la cotation moyenne du millésime.La grandeur de cette appellation transpire grâce à des cuvées de ce genre qui arrivent à atteindre des sommets...Magnifique !!!

  This is fresh with nice dark fruit. Well integrated oak and chalky mid palate. However it has a bitter finish which takes the score down. Not sure if more air would have helped (3 hours in bottle, not decanted). Drank with Easter striploin roast.

  HDH Bordeaux Auction; 10/31/2014-11/1/2014 (Chicago, IL): Lovely cherry and a bit of cough syrup on the nose. The palate is refined and aristocratic, with a good amount of stem, leather, tart cherry, and bell pepper notes. Classic and well proportioned in every area. Ready now, but definitely will hold for a few years more.
