Haut-Médoc, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
Drank 10/28/22.
Nose is very nice, but not overpowering, with plum, blackberry, cocoa, and just a hint of oak. Smooth black fruits on the palate, with medium, well integrated tannins, and just a hint of pepper.
3/22/8/4/4 + 50 = 91 pts.
A very classically styled Bordeaux and a good value at $30. I've heard the 2019 is also very good, but a bit more fruit forward. If anyone has tried both what is your preference?.

Needed an hour or so to open. I probably will hold off on the rest of these for a few more years.

My wife didn’t care for it but I liked it. I thought it a bit reduced at first pour but after a little time in the air and it was nice.

Prominent dark fruit on nose. Mouthwatering acidity and intense tannins - better after 4 hours and best day 2. Earthy dark fruit tobacco and leather with mild spice. Lingering tannins.
