Green bell pepper. Great bright fruit and balanced acidity. Can go another ten years but after decanting 2 hrs, drinkable today — 12 years ago

The Bordeaux I've had over the last six months has, I must admit, left me sceptical as to why Bordeaux is so brilliant. With the exceptions of Chateau La Cardonne 2003 and Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste 2001, much of the Bordeaux I've had has left me disappointed. This bottle however reaffirmed to me the beauty of the region. Just an astonishingly good wine - 2005 of course being an excellent vintage - whose only let-down lay in my not opening the bottle a few years later; the wine would definitely benefit from a good five to ten years' more age, to soften the tannins and allow a longer finish. I am however being fussy. It was fantastic. — 13 years ago

A lovely sparkling from Tassie. A fine bead, delicate restrained nose and graceful yet powerful palate. Ten years young. — 12 years ago

Well. It's young. Serious Oaked up nose. Even so quite pleasant and intense on the palate. It'll be perfect in Ten years. — 12 years ago

Better than the RSV but not by much. Not sure where this will go in ten years but it needs at least that much time. — 13 years ago
