| Tasting note |
There is smoke and cedar on the nose here, dark fruit with somewhat more meaty tones than that which I found in the Léoville-Barton. It is dark and a little sooty too. The palate seems supple and relaxed (whereas Léoville-Barton was more linear and tight) but there is still a very fine definition here, and it holds together very well, with the structural elements very nicely contained within the substance of the wine. A good weight to the finish. This is a very good effort indeed for the vintage.
