Decanted and tasted over 4 hours. The tannins and acidics seemed balanced with the fruit initially but the fruit didn’t stand up. The tastes are dark berries and graphite but one dimensional. I doubt this will get more interesting with more cellaring but it will last. I wouldn’t serve it for guests but nice for a weeknight treat with a steak and salad.

Château Branon Pessac-Léognan 2010: Full-body. Medium-plus acidity. Nice structure with a rich mouth feel. Bold black fruits, plum, tobacco, cacao & spice and a seductive long finish. What a dark velvet beauty! Outstanding quality & flavors. Glad I opened this now however I will definitely age my second bottle for another 10 years! Great day to all! Cheers🍷
