Cracking bottle from JLT. Drank alongside a bottle of bad boy (also 2015) for comparison. Both represent well, though the Virginie is a class ahead in all aspects.

No formal notes but a superb rive droite nose, a perfectly balanced palate with a bright fruit and some wood and vanilla yes but not overwhelming and rather well integrated already. Long finish with currant and vanilla. Great effort
