Looks like I like this quite a bit better than the major wine critics. Nice dark garnet color with a fine aromas of pain grille, cassis, and tobacco. Despite its youth, not overly tannic and shows some nice and juicy cassis and blackberry with some cigar box. Maintains nice elegance within a medium body. Finish is very long. More elegant and burgundian in style, this is a wine that's right up my alley. Lovers of thicker, jammier Bordeaux may want to pass on this vintage. For me, this is an absolute buy.
I paired this with a dinner of Seared, bacon-wrapped Sirloin, gratin dauphinois and sauteed Kohlrabi. Perfect combination.
