Grand Cru Classé de Graves Red Bordeaux Blend

Good. Consistent. Fruit and mocha. Steady. Just not mind blowing

93+....showing better than I expected with dark fruits and dark chocolate as well as pencil shavings...really long

A bit sweet

Winter wine at the summer house! Usually not a fan, but the 08 is smooth and refined. Probably a year past peak, but pairing well with my feta stuffed olives. Enjoyed as an end-of-the-work-week respite and prep for the weekend. Nod to the WNH! Anyone skiing in Tahoe in March?

Олно из самых дорогих белых вин Бордо. Впечатления - средние. Не моё.

Surprisingly open and accessible now. Nice nose of earth, subtle fruit, and a great mouthfeel. I'd like to revisit in 5-8 years

Highly rated, but a little bit too "smooth" for my liking. Maybe in 5 - 10 years... Btw this was the red!

Crisp with a lingering finish
