Rich purple garnet, dense in the middle, purple shimmer on the outside. The bouquet shows a spicy, quite profound Cabernet expression, black peppercorns. On the palate with serous access, distinct astringency and thus showing a lot of demanding tannins, blackberry finish. He is not a flatterer and shows tannins for the day after tomorrow. So this is going to be quite a feat of strength. It reminds me a lot of my own 2000s and it's starting to become a big Médoc cru today.
