Another monarch despite being a deuxieme cru and undoubtedly the “king” of Saint Estephe. A very lively, bright and impressive red color with no signs of degrading. The aroma has acute notes of cherry and blueberry on an exquisite background of tanned leather. There are sensations of dark spice (black pepper and juniper) as well as a note of tar. The mouthfeel is decidedly austere with a very solid structure. Perspectival as few others (it will last, always improving, for decades) and it gives the impression of being an aristocratic as few other wines are. An extraordinary vintage.
