Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classé

Labels 2 slightly bin marked, 1 slightly nicked, previously purchased from Replica Shoes 's Hong Kong "The Classic Cellar From A Great American Collection VI" on 3rd October 2010

On Boxing Day 2019 (26 December!), cigary, smoky and heathery on the nose. Finesse of tannin, ripe, exciting flavour, plus elegance allied to balance and structure. A classic of the genre. In 2023, there is also velvety body and softness of texture. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
