Right bank Bordeaux: Brought as an extra for a test drive. Candied, jammy fruit on the nose and palate in the new-school vein. Liked the elegant and saline nature but otherwise not my cup of tea.

Bordeaux Right Bank 70s to 2000s: Extra bottle kindly brought by Melvin. Started with sweet red fruit before the whole clusters become more prominent. Was initially torn between warm vintage Pinot or perhaps a Bobal (Ponce?) but as the wine gained a more complex profile with more air Pinot seemed much more likely.

Similar to prior bottle, and very good already, but a couple years of age will be beneficial here.

Hints of potential but this is still quite young and tight. Definitely needs a few years to open up.
