Still quite shy. Slightly burly. A bit too dry for a bacon and cabbage pasta. Not as smoky/mineral times as I had hoped.

Dead, yet still tannic. That's a bad combo.

Cuvée élevage 9 ans
Robe jeune et noire
Nez précis fruit noire et lardé et frais
Bouche tendue très longiligne mais avec du gras en attaque la fin de bouche est plus creuse
Un manque d air ?

Intense forest fruit and almost some smoke on the nose. Felt a little tight -another few years and this will be very interesting.
