Roasted fruits, cocoa, maduro wrapper leaf, spice box. Loads of cool vintage character; a real old school Bordeaux. Plush, polished, really fine. #stemilion #bordeauxblend #rightbank

At this point well into tertiary territory. Woodsy/ forest floor on the nose. Savory umami notes with blackberry and little bit of mushroom on the palate. (Doesn’t sound it, but quite enjoyable).

Old school Bordeaux, St Emillion Grand Cru. Very taught out of the bottle, but after an hour of decanting was the tannins soften beautifully. In a good drinking window now, but will be enjoyable for years to come.
