Tasted side by side with Boisseau 2010. Was prepared to like 2012 better on the basis of vintages, but I greatly prefer the Left Bank style 2010 to the Right Bank style 2012. Cherries and red plums, dusty tannins, nice lengthy finish.

Very ripe cassis and plum but not cooked, rich on the palate with copious fine tannins. I love the structure. High alcohol but well balanced.
