Suave and textured, exactly what to expect from the vintage. A little brambley and stark at first but with time blossomed. #timetraveling

Vraiment une belle bouteille. Textbook vieux bordeaux. Sur des notes de terres, de sous-bois, champignons, mine de crayon. Comme je les aimes.

Perfect condition - sous-bois and dark berry with soft velvety currents

Aged well. Menthol, blackberry, green pepper notes dominate the nose. Acidity is nicely integrated. Tannins are soft and fading. Finish is smooth. Enjoyed it with a burger at burger and lobster in London. Fantastic meal.

I don't usually go for Bordeaux but when I do...its old as hell. This was well settled with many years of good drinking still to come. Great tannins and acid
