Needed a solid hour to open, but a treat when it did. This is drinking beautifully now, lots of puckery bramble fruit, smooth leather, tobacco smoke, and green herbs with assertive but integrated tannins. Shared with my pops over pork and fennel seed sausages, roasted new turnips and garden greens.

Quite faded. Definitely better than expected given the last bottle of this we had. Nice pairing with Turkey on thanksgiving number two.

Nice wine but likely would have been better a couple of years ago. Certainly a “proper” example of well aged left bank Bordeaux. Still a bit of acidity holding things together on the finish.

Drinking very well, classic northern medoc nose of graphite pencil and cedar, good medium body with deep mature fruit, well rounded, above average mature claret but never going to be spectacular.

滑らかでタンニンも丸く、熟成ボルドーといった感じ。
凄く主張があるわけではないけどエレガントでバランスがとれています☆
