  Very likeable - more so than the hermitage drank next to it which was also excellent. Classic CNDP on p. Some brunt rubber/neoprene in it. Really enjoyed. 1 btl left and will be held .

  Med acidity
  Med finish
  Med body
  
  Pale garnet w brown rim
  On the nose - dark fruits, barnyard, leather
  
  On the palette - similar to nose + a slight metallic taste/minerality
  
  I feel this has slightly gone off prime. Vs the 2004 we tasted.
  
  Ok. After an hour + in glass, it developed a very pleasant fig taste, reminiscent of ch musar !!

  Rich and ripe like post say below. Roses and ripe fruit on the nose and palette. Still very vigorous and alcoholic. Great for a cold night especially now. See how this one develops. Kinda Port-like.

  Full, balanced. Strong fruit supported with med tannins and nice acidity. Smoke, meat, anise. Plum fruit.
