Tasted next to the 2003. More structure and acidity in comparison, quite backward in fact with good depth. Quite harmonious, elegant with fine length. Drink or keep. 92-94

Un classique et un achat récurrent. Dépot substanciel...filtré et servi en carafe 1 heure plus tard ce midi. Terre et prunes avec des épices et du tabac. Tannins fins et Pas long en finale. Bien pour le prix du temps!

Burnt reddish brown, sediment. Dried berry fruit, smokey, sandalwood, leather and tobacco. Definitely showing its age, but wonderful example of tertiary flavour development. Flavours follow aromas with some balsamic on the finish. Dusty tannins, start off sweet then turn bitter.

Meaty and large scaled with a lot of ripe concentrated fruit. Also evident oak. I think this will be more interresting after 10 more years in the cellar.
