  This reminded me of a darker Barolo. Vitamin C nuance on the palate. Ripe, balanced, medium plus tannins.

  Opened with 2007 VT and 2006 Telegramme. This played to expectations: clearly made with similar touch but more rustic and more reglisse / roadside herbs. I believe this is peak or just past for Racines, but I’m holding Terrasse du Diable 2007 for a few more years, as in my view Terrasse falls off more slowly though it starts with less.

  Plenty of time left on this one. Fear not. Opened and tasted; tannins were immediately gripping and tugging. Beautiful red fruits and cherry cola. Tasted young and alive, with leather snd tobacco in the middle with endless length. Two hours later still going. Drink now or hold for a few more years.

  Beautiful wine. Great nose with black fruit, forest and pepper. Smooth, smooth, smooth with mature tannins and seamless progression.

  Forgot I still had this, it's been 9 years since we last had an '07. Has aged very well, balanced, very smooth/fully integrated tannins, mature fruit. Wish I had more of these I'd held onto this long.
