Extremely long aftertaste. Grand Cru quality though only 1er Cru by pedigree. An extraordinary wine by an extraordinary winemaker. Medium violet red with noticeable clearing around the rim. Very good nose with some fruit and 'pencil tip' tones.
Taste is a bit disappointing.
Nothing bad of course but lacks the profound concentration I would expect from Ch. Fine color though a bit paling towards the rim. Good and forward nose, mature fruit and soft flowery bouquet. Warm and tasty on the palate with the still discernible tannins making this wine a perfect accompaniment for the myriad of meat dishes that kept flowing in this fantastic 'game' restaurant.
