Some nice earthy aromas, but the palate was stale smoked Gouda, and it fell apart with air.

One of the best Bordeaux's I've ever tasted. Very youthful but is approachable now. Nose is intoxicating with blackberry compote, smoke, graphite, menthol, cayenne. Layered complexity on the palate. Big, juicy, I might even say "spicy?" Sooooo much potential in one bottle. Kuruoshi Beef/Ch. Trotanoy Dinner @Pignetti's Restaurant, Temple, TX

The bouquet was remarkably fresh yet formidable with dark ripe cherry, raspberry, floral undergrowth, rich dark soil and mineral tones. Soft textures were offset by tart red fruits, inner florals, earth tones and sweet herbs. It finished fresh with crush cherry, minerals and a hint of lively tannin.

This was on the youthful side that is just beginning to enter its drinking window, silky, polished on the palate with hidden tannins showing dark fruits, plum, cassis, graphite, mocha, spice & tobacco

WOTN for me and the group. Darker fruits, leather, graphite and a touch of menthol. This was decanted 6+ hrs and was still slightly shy at first. So much potential here and is good as this is now I can't wait to try again in 20-30 yrs. reminds me of a baby version of the 82 I just had. Unbelievable wine.
