Dark and brooding tawny purple, opaque. Killer nose of smoked meat, bacon, white pepper, red plums and stone. Rich velvet texture in the mouth. Coats the palate. Performing very well right now. — 9 years ago

Deep garnet with amber rims, almost opaque. A little darker compared to the 82 CB next to it. Great old Bordeaux nose. Black fruit, pencil lead, plus some light notes of wood. Chewy in the mouth at first but over the night this goes to a velvet and silky place. The WOTN for me. Quieted down at the end of the night but gave us huge enjoyment, clearly outshining the 47 and 82 served with it. Tasting all these blind and then side by side over 4 hours is pretty awesome. — 8 years ago

Dark sweet rich plummy black cherry aromas, a dense mouth filling velvet texted wine, very showy and feminine, dark red fruits, new leather, wet earthy appeal. Feminine texture with manly character. Big brawny yet very fruit forward and smooth, a crowd please with long life ahead. — 11 years ago
