Always well balanced, some good tertiary flavors forms into the glass. This is light, but the is lengthy too. Be smooth with the good you will serve with it. But do enjoy it slurp by slurp.
Note: don't wait too much before opening it!
Rating explained: -> 85 - 89 [ *** 1/2 ] (Very good to excellent wine definitely worth buying)

Encore très en vie! On l'a même carafé 1.5 heures pour adoucir les tannins. Se boit très bien mais pourra se conserver encore plusieurs années (5 ans?).

Plus évolué que la première fois. Nez sur les arômes de sous-bois, un peu de champignons, un petit peu de fruits rouges en retrait. Bonne mâche, longueur correcte. 87-88.

Robe rubis assez foncé. Le nez est tout en finesse sur des arômes de petits rouges, un peu d'épices, quelques notes florales en retrait. En bouche, bien que ce soit un peu mince, c'est d'une belle complexité, les tannins sont très souples, longueur correcte. Bon prix pour goûter un vin un peu plus évolué.

Bottle seems affected though not completely shot. Color is right where I like it, with intimations of mahogany, but there the enchantment ends. At least you can tell it is a Bordeaux built above its price (decade-old $17 retail sticker still attached). Hope to encounter a sounder specimen on some obscure wine list somewhere.
