Aged nicely, very supple, soft tannins, blueberries. Good sense of purity of fruit. Benefitted from a brief decant.

Round but not flabby, nice bottle bouquet developing, a great deal on ready-to-drink Bordeaux

Black fruits, enough body, mid +. Good balanced with soft tanning and spiciness. A bit earthy flavor. 1.5hours is better to wake it up. @1300, KPing - X, 200219-200306

Light body, medium to high tannin. Juicy, fragrant. However, was left too long and has lost something, leaving too irony a taste. Would try again with a different vintage.
