1996 probably at the end of its life, really approachable and drinkable. Earthy and a little mineral. Light fruit at the end

Opened up more after an hour. Definitely a Haute Medoc. Chewy and tobacco.

Tannic and dark berry aroma. Having dinner with my brother who I don't see very often since he lives in Bangkok! Just a nice relaxing evening!

Little fruit remains - graphite and iodine dominate despite smooth tannins ... Will try again in future

Very modern in style, but not overdone. Good fruit and ripe tannins. Not very complex but nice claret bottle indeed.

Dark, blackish robe, nose of asphalt, black cherries, anise and flowers. Medium bodied and rich but not overdone. Lots of Merlot here but good share of Cabernet too, like 60/40 I guess. Very classical in style and most pleasant, we liked it a great deal.

Earthy on the nose, mineral and leather to start, mild berry taste to finish with pepper, low tannin
