An all time classic. Deep and opaque beef-blood colour turning to purple-red near the edges. The nose is lively precise fresh red and black plums with black Chinese mushrooms then white fresh-sawn plank wood and some black ink. The palate has pencil shavings and graphite and a black coal tannin. There are hints of dark 100% cocoa chocolate and mouth puckering plum. One of the finest Boardeaux wines ever to be produced. Spectacular.
