May be the best Malbec I’ve ever had. Smooth blackberry jam with ripe dark fruit, less bite than typical Malbecs. Would buy again. — 5 years ago

Strong colour for this 2007 and very powerful for this vintage at St Julien, smoked notes on the nose spicy and red fruit. Powerfully Wine better if you wait 2 or 3 years more. — 9 years ago

This wine needed about 3 hours to release. Initially tight with uncomfortable medicinal nose which then totally dissipated. Drinking now next day and you get the age of fully integrated but not fading tannins. Nose has a delightful dark fruit and smokiness. Great fit of nose and taste, meaning - when tastes after smelling the experience is consistent and not jolting. I think the color purple in a subdued way. Very nice. Memo to self: decant and watch for sediment, and enjoy three hours later. — 10 years ago

Of the 2 Bordeaux drinking the best tonight, but long term the Brane-Cantenac 2005 will outlive this wine by 10 years easy. While very complex, a fine touch a green is traceable.

A classic currant and forest floor nose, fall leaves abound with a spike of spice and a barely there green that while subtle is apparent.

The pleasure here is higher for its more mature tasted and feel, while the brawny 2005 is a better wine it was not as enjoyable to me and feel it will be another notch enter in 3 years, and likely 2 notches better in 5.

The elegance and feel on this wine is ready to go and will easily go another 5+ years. — 10 years ago

A real head turner. This tastes all at once like its aged and complex but young and fresh. Evolves with air and the dark fruits continue to come forward over leather and tobacco notes. This is still very young so it will be interesting to see how it evolves in bottle, but it’s so good now. — 7 years ago

What a difference an hour decant makes! Pitch black in the glass. Barnyard funk on the nose. Blackberry and leather mid-palate. Lots going on with this wine and time will only improve this vintage. Tart cherry and cranberry on the finish. Firm tannins and quite dry. — 10 years ago

Third of 3 Napa cabs I've had tonight, and by far the best. Open for a few hours before finally trying and it is so damn floral. Soft red fruits dominate the palate, with a hint of dark chocolate and that new American oak smell/taste. The color is a dark magenta and pretty. All I need is a big ol' filet mignon to eat with this. — 10 years ago

Ruby hue with medium-plus saturation. Aromas and flavors of chocolate, Maraschino cherries, oak, plum, raspberry, rubber, strawberry, and vanilla. Medium body; ripe, medium-heavy tannins; and medium-minus acidity. Ripe, intense fruit on the nose and palate, with an oaky but easygoing finish of medium-short length. — 6 years ago

Had the tempranillo a few months ago, this time it’s the grenache. It’s still wickedly young but putting out loads of cherry and watermelon juiciness and then immediately takes a turn into that rocks district funk. Always impressive how that shines through even when these wines are fresh. — 7 years ago

At 28 years, this wine is just starting to mature. After a good 3+ hour decant, the wine started to wake up from its slumber. Powerful juice with integrated tannins. — 10 years ago
