Underripe blackberries, prunes, bittersweet chocolate, dark earth, not showing a lot of oak; balance towards earth & minerality; beautiful & delicious! - 2005

Worth waiting for, this is classic Bordeaux and the wine is alive and kicking. The tannins are finally softened and smooth, the wine is perfect in balance. Love it!

Very nice wine. A hint of cork taint blew off as this baby sat. Cedar, graphite, coffee and cigar box. I would have mistaken this for an ‘09 as the tannins were still firm.

Was shocked at youthful this still is. Delicious as is, but certainly opened up. Despite its still vibrant tannins, your palate was ensconced by a velvety mouth feel that really only aged Bordeaux can provide. Currant, cedar, tobacco leaf, graphite, and dark chocolate notes. A perfect companion to follow a rich white at an impromptu tasting. Thanks @Scott Petrus!
