Always felt this wine a bit boring, even in a **** vintage. A recent Capbern had more depth and cigar spice.

A stunning wine with exquisite balance of cassis, blackberry and black cherry fruit and a panoply of savory notes including violet, leather, cigar box and cedar. A beautiful wine entering a period of gradually maturing drinkability

10 GPL killing it with lamb chops. Instructive balance with a restraining force and fruit for days. Wow.

Incredible depth. Plum and black currants, touches of cedar. Showing well with 10 years under its belt. I see it continuing to age well over the next ten.

Needs a healthy decant and non hotel glass. Still tight, could go a few more years. But after some swirls and last glass, really elegant and fine tannins. Almost ripe blackberry and currant. Integrated oaky spice and long finish.
