Classic right bank. Everyone guessed that in a blind tasting. A few more years is fine and showing well now.

Crazy nose of burnt plastic followed by this gorgeous fruit and mineral. Def not for the Cali crowd. Very good but needs time. Love 00 right bank.

This was still youthful & needed some air showing cherry, red berry, spice, mocha with floral & tobacco notes.

Black cherry, raspberry, plum fruit with mocha, glycerin, licorice & tobacco. Like most 00’s tried this is still youthful & seems to have hardly budged since last trying.

Purchased a couple of cases on futures based on RP’s notes. Still youthful like most 00’s showing notes of berry & plum fruits, leather, mocha & violets.

This is a wine that I have had many times since its release where it always had an opulent style with black cherry, raspberry & plum fruits with notes of chocolate, earth, tea & expresso. Still youthful!
