It was very good but not fantastic or special. Long decant definitely improved it (drank over 6 hours). Very well balanced if a little narrow. Consistent fruit notes with some earthiness. Wanted to like this even more but it seemed to ultimately under punch it’s weight a bit to me.

Solid foundation perhaps opened too soon. Not overwhelmed nor surprised (solid but lacked the wow effect I’ve gotten on premier crus or second growths that are a third or half the price)

Dark, dense ruby. Explosive nose of dark fruits, flowers in the spring, pencil shavings, mint. Very mouthwatering. Velvety tannins, full body, medium plus acidity. Ripe, rich, and complex. Mineral aftertaste and long finish. 95-96.
