Tasted at Canon-La-Gaffeliere. Cark fruit, slightly oxidative at first (bottle only opened that day) but came round. Soft and sensuous on mid-palate but drying on the end.

Coravin pour at home. Dark garnet with just the slightest browning towards a thin transparent rim. Slightly drying tannins indicating the serious extraction that must have happened here, but otherwise this is a typical right bank Bordeaux with good concentration but also good acidity providing freshness. Good length too. Well done. No hurry drinking based on this small sample.

An aroma here not dissimilar to Rioja, a definite hint of American oak, strangely; good texture on the palate. Nice flavours - this is a very good 2007.
