From the Chateau:
Tasting notes: Very intense colour, deep, attractive dark ruby with crimson reflections. The nose shows slightly smoky notes of cigar box, Havana and fresh wood. Fleshy and very complex on the palate with great aromatic intensity. The tannins are still tight and of high quality. A profile showing great aptitude for ageing, when the wine will gain in complexity and smoothness.
To be decanted 2 hours before tasting. Enjoy from now until 2025-2030.’
