Light, almost floral aroma. Much less dry, but rather on the sweeter side. Tasteful notes of sweet lemon and apple. — a month ago

This 10-year-old is drinking beautifully now. Rich and fruit forward with nice balance and complexity.

Rounding up from 91.6.
Allen Brothers Lamb Lollipops and the 05 vintage from Bordeaux. 🤔 😋
The 2005 vintage was magical w/ star producers. Very good with the lesser regions like Caronne.
Pretty sure I paid around $25 for this give or take.
The entry is round, lush & rich. Blackberries, black raspberries, black plum, dark cherries and poached strawberries. Dark rich earth, moist clay, lead pencil, tobacco/cigar ash, used leather, dry river stone, dark chocolate cooking bar, black licorice, limestone powder, dry herbs, very light baking spices, dark, red, purple withering flowers, round acidity, balanced, highly structured & tensioned finish that lasts a minute.
This could actually use some more time in bottle, 3-5 yrs. — 18 days ago
