  Still fresh, with nice black fruits and even some red cherry and soft spice. Rounded but still pronounced tannins. Great bottle for 25 years of age.

  B3. 5 hour decant and then balanced out. Not Las Cases but a nice wine. Drank at Lark.

  Geopend op mijn verjaardag 2022. Prachtige cru uit 1998! De wijn is nog zeer levendig en vitaal. Rood-paarse kleur met een bruin randje, dichte kern. In de neus, gepofte kastanje, rokerig, notig, bacon en als fruit zwarte bessen en parika, beetje graniet en kruidig met witte peper, maggi. Lichte vanille tinten. Het smaakpallet is zacht, elegant en evenwichtig, met frisse, strakke zuren en mooi verpakte tannines. Minder fruit dan je uit de impressie van de neus zou verwachten, wat paprika, gedroogd fruit en munt. Ook in de mond kruidig, maar nu tinten van kaneel en kruidnagel, tikkeltje gember. Beetje stroeve afdronk met behoorlijke tannines.

  Interesting. I recently purchased this and it had obviously been kept very well. Almost perfect fill level. Upon opening, it really seemed very muted and just quite boring. Decanted and it improved after two hours and I gave it a total of 6 hours. Really very lovely. Seemed more like 14 years old than 24. This particular bottle could have gone on for another ten years.
