6 months ago I had a 2000 vintage and I liked it 90 points Let's see what this younger juice can bring to my senses. 2 hours in the decanter 🕙⏰ There are wines in which everything seems to be as it should be, but still something turns in your stomach and, worst of all, you don't know why. And this wine falls into that category. My guess - balance. The smell is lovely. A lot of smoke and earth. Spices and forest. Taste? A lot of blackberry, black currant, red currant, black pepper in the finish. Acidity and black pepper make this wine too harsh and one sided. No good edition from the great Chateau, especially that 2015 was fantastic vintage in Bordeaux JS - 93 Decanter - 90 CT - 89 Vinous - 89 RP - 86(!)
