this Saint Julien was tight at open. Decanted and then sang w cherries, a touch of vegetal, followed by a slight note of cranberry, then maybe some baking spice and a dash of white pepper at finish. After an hour the cherries were still dominant upfront and the wine had a velvety mouthfeel with a touch of cocoa powder. Lesser white pepper notes to finish.

Smoky fruit, well developed flavors, buttered popcorn, good caramel aftertaste. 2007 curious grape tasting.
