A lot going on here.... dark red fruit, mushroom, cedar cigar box. Well balanced, velvety with a long toasty vanilla finish.

2008 - very tight, very fine tannins. Refined and elegant. Lots of potential

A baby but this was really good, classic toasty Mouton nose.

1.5 hour decant(little fine/cloudy sediment). A majestic deep ruby red color. On the nose: perfumed nose of plum, smoked meat, old leather, eucalyptus, burnt cedar, green veggie. Taste: smooth, slightly creamy, elegant, structured wine with black plum, currants, herbaceous, nutty chocolate, leather, graphite and a long peppery savory dry finish. YUM! The financial crisis and excess wine to sell had the 08 1st growths all priced less than $200 a bottle so I bought a bunch.  At 15 years,  it's finally time to check em all out. This Mouton is a nice start.
