Dark tawny and opaque, darker than the 82 Gruaud Larose next to it. Similar complex nose with notes of black cherry and tobacco, old cedar cabinet, black earth and some dark fruit. Powerful in the mouth, and with 5+ hours of air, this was singing. In a good drinking window, but this easily has 10+ years of life ahead of it. Paired with the 82 GL, it was interesting to find how much these wines resemble each other.

Some pretty anise, floral notes on nose. Fruit mostly gone on palate, pretty dry and chalky.

Blind tasting wild card. Neat but not great, old world meets new for sure.
