Hefty new oak nose, plums, cassis and a touch tarry, even jammy. Very rich and concentrated, sumptuous, super ripe, superb fruit and just enough acidity. Powerful tannins. Very good length...
...obvious notes of melted licorice, creme de cassis, and toasty new oak. This ripe, dense, full-bodied St.-Julien is chewy, thick, high in tannin, large-bodied, and impressively long and dense.
Extremely well-done. Beautifully aromatic, with coffee, cedar and blackberries on the nose. Full-bodied, with fine tannins and a mineral, blackberry aftertaste with medium fine tannins.
Attractive scent and development on the nose. Well balanced and well judged...
