Pauillac, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
Pretty polished and in a good spot, just too expensive for an “early drinking” second label. Good, but lacking pretty severely in complexity.

$140 at Bilboquet for the annual Xmas lunch. So not bad and main reason for the 8.8. A little young but nice structure and fruit.

Baby killer! 2015 vintage. Cherry and Black pepper notes on the nose. Cherry, cranberry, cinnamon and black pepper. Has softened considerably in the first 30 minutes, almost velvety. Needs a ton more time, but will be worth the wait. Update: more graphite on the finish.
