Classic aged Bordeaux, deep red fruit mix with leather, pipe smoke, graphite, game, turned earth and gravel. Masculine tannins giving posture, oak has integrated very well.

Super funky on the nose, not much fruit but nice structure and mouthfeel. Need to be drunk.

First bottle was corked, second bottle (and my last) was in great shape. Evolving nicely and should still be doing well for another decade. Consistent value in Bordeaux.

Sadly quite a bit of Brett, but still a descent undertone of fruit.

This is the Baudry Chinon Domaine of Bordeaux to me. So. Damn. Tasty.

It's the oldest wine I've ever had. Not the best, but I'm impressed anyway. Because It's not any famous label from Bordeaux - Haut Medoc. All fruits on wine are gone. Some leather remained and still: this this characteristic aroma of cowshed :) Still elegant, still smooth and velvet.

Great nose. Needs time to decant properly, but opens up in full flower after a while. Beautiful tannins.

En veldig god flaske etter at den forrige skuffa litt.
