2019 vintage. Dusty, dirty, plummy nose. Medium/medium-heavy bod. A bit chunky for Pessac and that was perhaps the attraction. Balanced and overt fruit/tannins on the same plate. Seems like it'll hold steady as a bookmark in this spot for another 6-7 years. Curious as to where it rates in two decades but doubt I'll ever find out. 05.14.25.
