Always solid! Dark purple color. Cedar and dark cherries dominate. Medium depth and finish. Drinking young.

Merlot heavy blend from left bank. Had me worried at first - astringent notes and gritty tannins took an hour to air off. Dark - boysenberry and cassis with cedar. Smooth tannins and acid. Great with Kenjis smash burg for grill, but otherwise underwhelming.

Quite tasty the other night. I guess I caught it before it went to sleep for a while?

Eminently enjoyable. Easy drinking Bordeaux, balancing delicate and powerful flavors well.

My first time using my new Coravin. Fun toy. This is a beautiful, very drinkable wine, albeit a few years too young. It feels like it’s holding back a little though, almost like a powerful car that is confined to the speed limit.

Necesita aire.

Nariz: mora, arándano, cassis, regaliz, grafito. Al principio nariz funky, pero 30 minutos de aire y se fue.

Boca: Tanino M+ bastante resueltos, Acidez M, Alcohol M

Se beneficiaria de mas tiempo en guarda.
