Pulled it from the cellar thinking it was time since it is not an expensive or famous chateau, man was I wrong. This wine had some life, good structure and fruits, acidity and tannin all balanced. It was as the surprise of the night. Wish I had some more bottles to enjoy in the future, don't even remember when I got this one, but I sure will remember when I drank it.

Rich and smooth. Pretty opaque for a 12yr old wine and still showing plenty of fruit on the palate with reasonable amount of acidity and smooth tannins. Very enjoyable bottle, drinking well and certainly not past its prime as others have experienced Consumed alongside a 2010 Marengo Barolo Brunate which just pipped it by a couple of pts

Medoc rules. Saugeiles Teil, hat noch ein langes Leben vor sich. Drink from now to eternity.

Black raspberry and oaky aromas, medium bodied, some dryness in the finish and green flavors are found in this fully mature wine. Drink up.
