On the colour, deep ruby, opaque, with a reddish rim. The age is definitely showing with the bricking.
On the nose, this is quite fruit forward with black fruit notes, including blackberries, black cherries, black currants, slight hint of raisins, along with leathery notes, chocolate, peppercorns, cigar box, and forest floor. There is also a hint of menthol. This is quite complex and beautiful.
On the palate, it is also quite black-fruit forward, similar to the nose. There are also notes of leather and mushrooms, and finishes with a spicy note. Medium acidity and silky tannins, medium plus finish.
This is stunningly beautiful and elegant.

Bu au resto AVV La Suite avec les FOUDUVIN chapitre de l'Estrie! Bu en même temps que le Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia 2003 et 2006. Les 3 vins étaient similaire dans leurs profiles, bien fruité et délicieux. Long et tout en équilibre. 3 excellents vins!

Very good. Decanted & let breathe for 30 minutes before enjoying. No signs of fading. Flavors dark berries, cassis, expresso - medium bodied. One bottle left in cellar, Note to self hold for 5-10 years
