Jul 20th, 2013Popped, 1.5 hrs slow ox. Used a Durand to open, and the cork was probably penetrated 7/8 of the way through with a soft crimson hue, but probably could have opened this with a regular corkscrew. A sublime bottle of wine. I adore this BDX vintage, and this btl was no exception. Pitch perfect aromas of soft cedar, charcoal, smoke, dries bluberry and raspberry. Gorgeous on the palate, with a still present juicy acidic core, lovely density, waves of dried fruit, secondary and tertiary flavors and a very soft tannic finish.

May 31st, 2021Sérieusement un beau bordeaux à maturité, mais qui avait l'air plus jeune.... plutôt d'un 95-96... encore fougueux mais avec des arômes tertiaires de sous bois, tAbac, graphite, cuir. Une belle bouteille sans avoir la profondeur des grands millésimes... une bouteille en parfaite condition qui démontrait une belle fraîcheur. Excellent
