Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Excellent levels and appearance, tissue wrapped; Excellents niveaux et apparence, enveloppés en papier de soie

Classic, cedary nose. Red cherries taste and very luscious. Great clarity. This is amazingly good. A bouquet of cherries in liqueur. Extraordinary freshness and vivacity on the palate. No thick depth, but great fruit impact. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
