This vintage is 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc. This houses website lists the percentage of varietals in the vineyard. Decant for sediment only. The window is perfect, and should remain ideal for next 8 years. Plenty of acids for a 4ème Cru created in a rainy year. Last tasted 5 years ago and needed over 2-3 hours to open. Simply yum.

A surprisingly strong showing from this otherwise mediocre vintage.

Great nose and really opening up. Balanced through on the palate and some great fruit. Thanks, Charlie!

It was a perfect choice for the filet mignon at Daniel Boulud. 2007 probably at its peak right now.

Still carrying a good dose of fruit and acid, meaty undertones, ultra-mellow tannin.

Almost spearmint and blackberry nose with prune and ripe red fruits; bit clunky early but after decant and time lovely and balanced in a tough vintage.

I am not feeling this one. Bizarre earthy undertones do not mesh well with the over-extracted currant fruit. Pass on this one.
