Jan 25, 2016--Rich, yet fine and delicate, one of the very best! Edinburgh, Scotland at the Witchery Restaurant — 9 years ago
Powerful mousse, citric peel, white fruits, vibrant acidity, baking spices, chalky texture, small fine bubbles! — 12 years ago
Brioche, slightly oxidative pears, apples and yellow florals on the nose. Lot's of bruise pear, bruised red & golden apples, citrus mix, pineapple, butterscotch, yellow florals, brioche, fine soft chalkiness, fine bubbles, good acidity, soft minerals with good crisp finish. On the back end of the night, it's another amazing experience as a palate cleanser. Cleanses the Cabernet tannins straight away should you save a little to finish the night. — 9 years ago

Starting to dry out. Not fruity, not jammy, just wIne....very fine! Christmas 2016 — 9 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. — 9 years ago
A bit of oxidation, but otherwise, just fine. Fruit still there. 1970, 45 year old wine for our 45th Anniversary. — 10 years ago
