3 very consistent bottles decanted and served. The wine does need 30 minutes to fully open up so no PnP pls. This is now coming to full power and much like many of the 2007s drinks beautifully now. Soft earthy, dark fruited, light smoky and of course leather. Elegant and restrained, silky on the finish and a solid wine. Very good 91-92

Incroyable 2007! J'en ai bu très peu pour les trouver fluets et sans noblesse tannique... Ce n'est pas le cas de cette cuvée concentrée, moderne et chatoyante offrant un nez de cassis, de cèdre, de léger cuir, de sous-bois, d'épices, de boite à cigares, de bois ciré. Au toucher, il possède un demi-corps épanoui, un fruité mûr et pur encore, une allonge mesurée mais du gras qui enrobent des tanins remarquables pour un 2007 mais qui manquent de definition dans l'absolu. Très belle réussite! 92+

Tasted after the 2006. Quite green and herbal on the nose, stalky with notes of spices and earth. Tannins on the palate were more angular and coarse. Bright, not very generous. Spicy finish. 87-89

Strange experience, tasted together with the 2006. Good, but much more sugar - in a bad year. Chaptalization? Still ok, but a weird wine.
