Tasted at the chateau. The nose is very fresh, leaping out of the glass, with fresh blackberry, raspberry, a touch of gravel and graphite. It has brilliant definition and focus. The palate is tannic on the entry, a masculine Pauillac as always, a little austere but not excessively so. Ripe fresh black fruits, a touch of soy and cedar, vibrant and focused towards the tannic finish with a saline aftertaste that develops more silkiness as it aerates in the glass. Beautiful. Drink 2015-2040.
