Solid drinking, this hit the spot. Red berries, plums, graphite, leather. Nice acidity and generous dusty tannins. A hint of curry spice.

Really great wine. Lots of acidity, but tons of fruit and tannin. Ready to drink now but will do even better in 15-20 years.

Wow, 2002 could have waited another 5/10 years. Full bodied, rich.

Slightly funky nose but excellent fruit, just on the edge of austere. Opened 90 mins early

Not bad although disappointing given age and grand cru. An hour later was better although clearly means too early to drink for me. Should have held it for longer.

Super smooth. Very elegant flavour with strong fruit. Not overpowering though
