Vintage 2004 - á Point and beautiful! Complex smell with plums, pencil shaving, autumn leaves, mushrooms, lumber. Smooth taste with good balance, vivid and with tension. Better than expected. #saintestephe #loveit

Mid-shoulder fill had me worried, but this was a delight. Perhaps the lightest bodied and most translucent Bordeaux I have seen. Might have guessed Burgundy blind. Consumed over a few hours and this began with abundant red fruit. Over time it became more earthy, but the last glass was the best. My first experience with this 5th growth. I'll seek out some more.
