Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend

ripe raspberry, eucalyptus, mint? over dried red fruits. nose is amazing, beautiful. silky up front- young but it cleary has everything going for it. buy!

One moment rich and dense and boisterous. One moment soft and elegant. Still trying to work through the story it’s trying to tell, but it’s an intricate one worth listening to.

Cracked black pepper, blueberry, vanilla bean. Full progression. Well placed tannins given youth. Juniper berry appears. Hidden coco nib nose.

Great Bordeaux, good vintage, potential to age well now. Nice fruit, spice, and extraction

Guessed left bank 09-10! Clear pedigree, dominant finish.

1/20/2017: Degustation CA Grand Crus

Really opened up after breathing a while

5ième grand cru classé, quite disappointing for a grand cru, simple, lacks complexity, not a big fan, could be a bad bottle!! Will have to try it again in the near future to validate my initial opinion.

Remarkable
