Haut Medoc Cru Bourgeois. Bright cherries and blackcurrants on the nose, q expressive. Fruit-forward, intense and attractive aromas. V good weight and rounded body on the palate. The oak and tannins still get in the way, but there're enough underlying black fruits and spices to make it a rather enjoyable offering. The finish is rather long but still a tad bitter. Textbook left-bank Medoc. Competent (8.2/10).
