Enjoyed this more than my first bottle a few months ago. Has settled down a bit. Quaffable, bright tart red fruit. Again was better on day 2. Not "pure" bottling — 9 years ago

This is quite a sniffer. Open right from the start. Savory spice and roses and peat. Wish I had a case stashed away! — 11 years ago

Scuba tank of 2000 Pur zero sulfur. This was amazing. Made by Pacalet at the time. Yannick the winemaker was very generous to open this, prob would have cost 700 Euro. — 12 years ago

This is quite a complex wine. Give it some time to breathe and it will reward you for that. Doesn't need any more time to age, if anything drink it soon. I didn't have another to compare it to, but it may be just past it's prime. Primary flavours: Tobacco, stewed plum, dried sour cherry. Secondaries: leather, smoke, white pepper, vanilla. Tertiaries: green capsicum, spearmint. Full body, long finish, very intense, very complex, many levels of expression.

The short answer - buy it and drink it — 10 years ago

Oh right, that's why I like French Malbec better then Argentine. Red, spicy, but not too inky or floral. — 11 years ago
