Tannins still big and gritty. Dark cassis.

Ripe and hedonistic, showing the weight of the vintage. Could easily be seen as a leaner Napa producer, but the astringency of the tannins and taught lines pull it back to France. Drink more Bordeaux, people! It's not as expensive or as elusive as you think.

I have to give it to the French. Complex nose and profile. They achieve a wine with ample dark fruits and at the same time, the wine remains very dry. This is a serious wine.

Delicious quaffer and ver accessible with steak and lamb. Fruity with nice tannins. Will get better.

Nice St Estephe. Bit more richness than I expected. Solid if a bit awkward on the finish.

Nice Bordeaux. This year (2010), we’re told, is very good value.
