Paired great with grilled filet mignon. Decanted the 2008 about 1 hr before drinking.

Aroma has complexity including oak, vanilla, black fruits, mushroom etc. Taste is changing a lot. Even in 2008, 12 years, but it is better to decant it. Then, one hour, we can enjoy it. It has elegancy, unexpectedly. Spiciness. Smooth over time. Aroma is still more than taste. 2 hours, just balanced. 1 - 3 hours after start of decanting is good to enjoy this wine. @3420, Xiaduo - XH , 191204-200123

(16/20) Довольно "закрытый" аромат с нотами сливы, яблок и молочного шоколада. Умеренно танинное, по ощущениям танины суховаты, хотя и не вяжут. Неплохо, но хотелось бы большей сложности и открытости вкусов и ароматов.

Heard things were 'improving' at this property - never can tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing. But this seems built in a pretty classic way while seeming very stuffed. Old-style brawny tannin and cedary oak could almost make this pass for a left bank wine, but the plummy fruit flavors are pure merlot. Features a very gravelly minerality underneath which goes along well with that rugged texture. It's structured enough for brontosaurus steaks but the fruit material is still packed in so densely it has enough primary sweetness not to come across *too* drying on the palate.
