A bargain! After 6 hours decanting (by accident), the wine is dark ruby with inky purple notes and a high viscosity; the nose - the best aspect of this wine - is packed with red cherries and dried plums and figs, earthy leafy leather, sage, and light tobacco; taste is somewhat disjointed although the tannins stick with the right intensity to the right oral surfaces and the acid, fruit profile and finish are great.

Easy drinking juicy dark fruit, medium body and booze and enough flavor intensity to be pleasing. A nice dusting of cabernet sauvignon pencil shaving on the finish. Great versatile wine for pleasing a crowd. — 8 years ago

So much going on with this Saint Estephe... Pencil lead, bacon fat, black current, blackberry, black cherry, red pepper flakes, dried tomato, peperroni, bell pepper, leather, dark chocolate, pipe tobacco, lilac.
Chalky tannins (med+) and mouthfeel. Very complex. Good vibrant acidity. Kinda mindblowingly complex actually. Yeah, I could write a short story about this wine. — 6 years ago

Très bon Saint Estèphe malgré l'année. Relativement doux, rond en bouche et tannique. A plu aux femmes. — 9 years ago
Great wine! Had this wine about 2 years ago. It changed dramatically in the glass over the course of 45-60 minutes. Can't wait to open the other bottles in the future... Near future. :) — 10 years ago
