Tasted blind at Farr's 2002 Bordeaux tasting. A rather taciturn nose but there is obviously good fruit intensity coiled up inside, blackberry, graphite and a touch of iodine. The palate is full-bodied with a lot of dry extract, tannic, austere and rather stoic. Very “classic” in style, but certainly good breeding that will blossom in the future. Tasted October 2009.
