Round, ample wine with fruit that hangs. Both Delon & vintage deliver classic St. Julien.

I'm not the biggest Bordeaux fan.... But this wine is impressive... Ripe, polished & accessible... Not much more to ask from a second label!

Sept. 2022--In a great place at 17 years. Has the fruit of the 2005 vintage and the beautiful balance of St. Julien.

Very smooth after two days in decanter. Should continue to age 10+ years. To 2030, at least.

Nice nose of fresh berries. Still a bit of acidity and nice strawberry flavor w a slight aftertaste of cigar wrapper. Flavor does not last long.
