This starts off a little bretty with barnyard undertones, but it blows off to flowers and rich fruit. Round and juicy, with yummy flavors. A long finish on this. Very spicy and earthy. St. Estephe character. Enjoy or age.

Aromas of currant and fresh flowers follow through to a medium-to-full body, with chewy tannins and a slightly woody finish, but the fruit comes through. Turns long and pretty.

Dark garnet hue. Bright and lifted with leafy, blackcurrant notes and a hint of liquorice. Smooth attack with a greater density of fruit. Tannins just that bit silkier. Adequate freshness. More poised and refined compared with the previous vintages tasted. (JL)

Notes

From barrel: 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 29% Petit Verdot. Sweet and lush-delicious. Elegant style. We love this wine. Ready sooner than most. Mouth-coating wine. Elegance personified. New school Meyney-buy it. Tasted three times with consistent notes. Ralph says: Best I've ever tasted and showed superb at every tasting. Deep raspberry fruit on nose and palate, silky middle. *1/2+ (Clyde Beffa, K&L Bordeaux buyer)
