Bricking at the rim, but opaque overall. Velvety tannins, rich fruit, beautiful tertiary development and balanced acidity. A touch hot, but I can’t complain. Bargain/sleeper/opulent/vindegarde?

Drank over two days. Best on Day 2. Cassis, lingonberries jam, tobacco and chocolate oranges (??) on the nose. Fascinating really. Tart plums and cassis on the palate and the oranges come back on the finish. Solid structure; stiff tannins. Really fun wine. Wish I had more.

Decent Bordeaux. Fruit forward with grippy tannin. Quaffing wine.

It's drinkable. Some cherry on the nose and pretty serious tannins

Merlot driven blend? Beef and chicken fondue, tempura battered vegetables. Very round Bordeaux, tannins are well integrated. Drink now.
