2010 vintage. Seductive vintage with sweet floral bouquet, jasmine nectar, ripe black cherry, overripe blackberry, fig, raisin, medjool date, mussel shells, blueberry, mulberry. Graphite rich black currant, tart black cherry, savory, chicory coffee, licorice, charred mint, lit tobacco, and bitter chocolate. Gorgeous and ample.

Unbelievable, this wine still is young fruity and with enough tanine to let it rest for another few years. And it’s already 12 years old.

Classic Pauillac from an epic vintage. Needed time to open but was realty singing after about an hour. Beautiful high time floral notes with earth and power.

Fresh, juicy black fruit, sous bois, well integrated oak and tannins. Good aromatic Paulliac. Ready to drink with grilled lamb.

Ever so slightly corked. Tough to compete against the homemade ebi fry as well.

Cassis, blueberries, humidor, pencil, graphite, spicebox.
Classic, mineral mouthfeel, medium- to full bodied. Chewy but ready to drink!
