Excellent 2016 vintage. Very complex, polished tannins and long finish. A bargain for a top left bank Bordeaux.

Medium ruby , thin pink ruby rim . Quite closed at first , with dark cassis , tobacco hints. This is quite rich on the palate with cassis and blackcurrant , tobacco and grafite hints. Good fresh acidity , and grippy tannin . Saline, tobacco tinged finish . Really good balance and length . Showing well but will improve over the next 5-10 years.

2016 vintage. Last tasted 6.6.23 (9.5). From Coravin. Still as big as ever. Lower score likely due to BDX palate fatigue as this was number 8 in a line of 11 BDX. Nose not as expressive as last go round but still fab. 5.9.24.

Good vintage’s, but drinkable. This is the feature of this wine. Black currant ample aroma. Of course, just 7 years, different from other years, even in 2 hours, there is some solid. But it means there is a possibility to be much better over the years 2016 @2500, wine plus - Eric T, 230322

2016 vintage. Very balanced , very tasty, long finish.
Deep garnet, aromatic, medium body, some plum and tobacco notes. Excellent value.

Plum, pencil shavings, fine tannins. Ruby in the glass, medium weight, light bouquet. Day two: more explosive.
