Pauillac, Haut-Médoc, Médoc, Bordeaux, FranceThe highest cabernet proportion in recent years at 65%. Open coffee, blackberry jam, cassis, tobacco, cedar, floral, waxy, plum, vanilla aromas. Round, dry, supple, slightly tannic and chewy palate with moderate acidity. Tobacco, chocolate, coffee, cassis jam, blackberry, peppery, floral, vanilla, olive, savoury, leather flavours. Good fruit and length, similar acidity to the 1982 so this should keep improving for at least 5-7 years.Tasted: 24 November 2010Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
