Purchased EP, from magnum, decanted an hour in advance.
A maturing mid red with a lighter rim.
A nose of blackcurrant and tobacco with a little cedar.
In the mouth the tannin is soft and integrated. The acidity is gentle. Dark fruit with a real elegance. One of the most developed 2005 bordeaux I have had,
which has shed the hardness and tannin often associated with the vintage. Very pleasant claret with a lot of life ahead. **** or 93ish points.
