old soul right bank bordeaux - definitely towards the tertiary flavors but very elegant. the fruits are baked and rhubarb’ed and there is a really nice plum note on a long and distinguished finish. opens up nicely after an hour of air. would open this now.

1996 Bordeaux (St Emilion Grand Cru), past it’s prime. Muted fruit profile, but lots of black plum (heavy merlot), wood, vanilla, tobacco, mushroom, stewed black fruit, hints of spice, pronounced tannins.

Absolutely tasty! Light body, brick color on the edges. Super jammy and extremely savory with a bit of pepper. Delicious
