Has nicely aged. Strong minerality. More than a second wine. Nice viscosity and all around first rate Pomerol. Can take more age, but very good now. Some tomato leaf and very meaty with mineral elements. Excellent.

Well aged, balanced and smooth bordeaux. Dark cherry fruit; tomato leaf and cedar finish. Tannins are fully integrated. Simple yet elegant now, a far cry from an undrinkable tannic mess of 20 yrs ago.

At Monopole: Some mushrooms and musty earth on the nose, followed by soft leather, light pot-pouri, small red cassis berries. Medium body, soft, lower tannins. Not bad, but a bit musty, and soft acid makes it a bit flabby.
