This is a chunky, husky style of wine with an astringent side to its tannin. It is robust, with plenty of depth, as well as an annoying coarseness. There is some lightening of the color, but the wine is still a young, spicy, monolithic style of Pauillac that may emerge and reveal greater complexity and class, or remain foursquare and compact.
Backward and structured, though a bit coarse. Brilliant, deep ruby color, with a hint of garnet on the edge. Currant, floral and berry aromas. Big and chewy, with plenty of fruit and tannins
