Rich and smooth. Bought at Mitsukoshi for ¥3,300. — 9 years ago
2019 vintage. An estate owned by the Cazes family (Lynch Bages, Haut Batailley). A blend of Merlot (50%), Cabernet Sauvignon (40%), Cabernet Franc (7%) and Petit Verdot (3%). Less flashy compared to the Capbern 2019 tasted yesterday, give it some time to open up. Even with the high Merlot percentage, it has more of a dark Cabernet Sauvignon personality with black fruit and a serious, slightly severe tannic backbone. Abv. 14,5 %. — 4 years ago

Chocolate cherry aromas and flavors. Still very tight and showing a good amount of tannin. Typical St Estephe in its youth. Needs a couple of years to come around — 2 months ago
