Drinking great. Wide open after an hour decant. Typical currant fruit profile and picking up leather & other secondary notes since last tasting this a few years back. I have always been bullish on 96 Medocs but feel like they are really hitting their stride as of late.

Elegant and complex featuring rich cedar, currant black cherry and cassis notes with grace, harmony and the kind of structure that should ensure it will age beautifully Wine Spectator gives us a score of 97

Pulled a few gambles out of the cellar and this one didn't disappoint. A beautiful wine, great color, mouth feel, silky finish and lots of complexity to tickle the palate
