My dad opened this half bottle since we all wanted 2nds! Still young at 15, with dark fruit and very little fat. Serious claret!!!

Jan 18th, 2015Showing very well. Attractive cedar and dark fruit on uncorking, opened up after 1-2 hours. Recorked anaerobically overnight, next day tannins fairly strong, needed air. This 16-yo cru classé from a big year is just entering maturity. It lives up to its name, "to chase away the blues."
