aged well. Decant for about 30 mins. Dark fruit, cassis, cedar, some tar and graphite. Tannins still present but going to get any better. This Drink now - it's really good!

Each bottle a little better than the last. Definitely needs a good decant, because better on Day 2. Hits all the right notes for Pessac: cedar box, black cherry, leather and dry dirt. Tannins still kicking, but just barely. Taunt, short finish.

Nowhere near the elegance or muscle of some of the iconic names from this appellation, but what can you expect for $15? This bottle was better than the first, but definitely needed a good decant. Red and black fruit, plum and leather on the nose; black cherry, leather and brett on the palate. No tannins to speak of. Weak finish.
