Still hanging in there! Such a treat! Thank you to my generous friend John Slattery.! Roasted peanuts, dark soft plummy fruit. Nice acidity. Tannin totally resolved. A little minerally on the lively finish.

Primal fruit, a bit discordant, short finish-some paper overtones.

From Margaux's weak period. Dried out and vegetal. Lacking any elegance or depth or attractive elements.

A little past it's prime, but a nice piece of history.

Dried cranberries, grilled raspberries, leather, menthol, jasmine, and subtle smoke. So delicate and tea like on the palate, just wow! 😍
