Le Petit is Grande. Probably should have decanted but I didn’t. Tons of tannins and really rich earth. Hasn’t lost any color still very dense.

My first left bank experience. Complex, balanced, tar tobacco, tannins not overly present. Delicious

Plum, dark berries, mushroom, earthy, oak, some tar, one of my favorites I've tried so far

Great nose but tight tannins that did not open up. High acidity Plenty of concentrated fruit. Wine was just too young. Needs time.
