Thin and disjointed to start off but with not that much air and time (30 mins) it fattened up and tannins came through and it turned out quite nice.

A beauty. Tasted blind and with grippy but still pleasant tannins I thought this bottle showed like a 1961 Left Bank.

Beautiful, still plenty of time in hand, a truly elegant St. Emilion. What a crime that Moueix has taken it away :(
