Estimate
One of the all-time great Grand-Puy-Lacostes...super-rich Pauillac revealing classic creme de cassis notes intermixed with hints of spring flowers and crushed rocks. Full-bodied with sweet tannin, shocking concentration, & layers of fruit..
...a rich and caressing wine. Sweet berry flavor, with hints of tobacco and raisin. Medium- to full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a caressing finish.
...Reticent aromas of plum, currant, mint and cedar. Dry, penetrating and stylish, with very primary flavors and noteworthy vinosity. Classic claret intensity and grip without any excess weight...
...Fresh cassis leaf and still fresh cassis fruit. Dark fruit and a hint of liquorice. Wonderfully fresh and very little developed aroma. Firm but fine grained rather than velvety. Still has a bit of grip...
