Very nice typical Bordeaux blend. The wine was stored for 12 years. I'm sure that 2012 is the peak period and recommend to drink now. Very typical leather and smoky smell of cabernet sauvignon. Herbal taste plus typical black fruit aroma such as dark cherry, blackcurrant and blueberry from merlot. All elements are integrated beautifully. Smooth and well balanced tannin. No need to decant. I'm not a big fan of Brodeaux red but I would say it's surprising from a general Bordeuax AOC grade red wine.
