Deep ruby , garnet , with thin garnet rim . Quite deep and ripe cassis , violet , blackberry , meaty grafite , sea spray , rich but well balanced . Quite well defined on the palate , blackberry , cassis , grafite . Balanced quite fresh acidity , fine but noticable tannins . Quite good grafite , saline tinged finish . Quite classic in style , with freshness from the cool fruit character and mineral focus , but polished with enough stuffing to age further , and probably improve over the next 5 -10 years and last well a further 10 . — 2 days ago

Not sure I’ve had any other 2006 Bordeaux but decided to pull this to give it a go at nearly 20 years of age. Nice wine but perhaps not one that justifies the price point. At first quite tight, but after a 5 hour decant this really comes into its own. Lots of leather and dark blue and black fruit. Oak is really only apparent in structure now. Great acid. 13% which is nicely balanced. — 20 days ago

Nose of hibiscus and menthol. Tannins present and well balanced. A bit forward on the palate - meaning it is powerful mid palate. - finish is long but slightly off balance on the palate @Rajat Parr wouldn’t be happy - striving for balanced wine - but this one is a bit off the mark … — 2 months ago

2015 vintage. I last tasted this 2 years ago, and today it is fully mature, the tannins have softened, and the wine has gained in complexity and elegance. But I don't see this getting any better,so drink asap. Moreover,it sells for a song. From the owners of famous Saint- Julien Léoville Barton ( that is still reasonably priced, check the incredible 2022 Léoville Barton!). — a month ago

Birth year tastings, evening 3.
Red and black fruit, warm pebbles, beautifully perfumed. Detailed and unassuming, yet with quite a lot to say. Still fresh and full of promise. After a few minutes of swirling in the glass, it retreats back into its shell. Elegant, understated, and balanced. — 9 days ago

Traditional GSM blend. Dark ruby/purple color. Aromas of red and black fruit, leather and spices. Ripe strawberry, pomegranate, currant and plum fruit on the palate along with hints of tobacco, vanilla and black pepper. Slight touch of minerals on the medium-plus finish. Full bodied and light on the tannins and acidity. Thanks for opening, Keith S. — 3 months ago
