  It is interesting to read through the notes on this wine. Ten years after the last note, this wine was a surprise and a delight. All the comments from 10-15 years ago how this was over the hill? Maybe so but happily not this bottle. No idea where this was obtained but in great shape. We have other Bordeaux from this vintage and in 2023, this is as good or better than a number of more highly regarded estates. This wine appears younger, fruity, yet classic Bordeaux structure. Well done and even nice on day 2. Hope to stumble on another bottle of this in the basement.

  So super disappointed in this wine. It lacked any character at all. A hint of leather due to its age but overall just a total bland experience. Wine deserves to be better than this.

  Earthy and full-bodied. Excellent color and nose. A little past prime drinking window, good with lamb sausages.

  Decent wine, very one dimensional, the thing that strikes me with this one is how lacking the wine is given the rich color.

  Drank with BBQ tri-tip. Well worth the weight in opening. Not many more years left in this one.
