Dark red / mahogany color. Still very fresh and lively. Aromas cassis, sandalwood, and savory herbs. Medium bodied but builds towards a long finish with dark berry fruits and some coffee. tannic structure still If not slightly astringent. Day two was better than when I opened it last night. Needs decanting if you’re planning to drink soon. Drinking nicely now for sure

A bit stemmy and astringent on initial pop but came into its own with air. Surprisingly complex and elegant nose of sweet blackberries, black cherry, cedar, violets, leather and green tobacco leaf. Palate is fairly rustic texturally but lots of sweet black and red fruit beneath the tannic and mineral surface, with a pleasing green tinge on the finish. Overachiever!

Stunningly good at 22 years old. Deep and dense. Soil’y with aromas of black currant and bittersweet chocolate. I’ve been enjoying a lot of 00-05 medoc wines lately. While not mind blowing they are wonderful all alone or with the right food. Shows what a $30 bottle from a great terroir / producer is capable of. Not every wine needs to cost hundreds of dollars to be enjoyable

Dry and bitter initially but little remaining fruit creeps out after about an hour. Not very complex but rather nice in an old fashioned way. Refined tannins characteristic of the vintage.

Despite warnings this might be fading this bottle was in excellent shape and had life ahead of it. Nothing fancy here, just really solid Bordeaux for the price. Deep fruit, cigar box, long finish. Needs some air and still great on day 2. Unmistakably Bordeaux.
