Well, it has been written and spoken and dreamt about. Yes, no doubt it is one of the best bordeaux I have ever had. Full, complex yet balance and well structured. The range of complexity is mind blogging, the richness and concentration surpassed some of the fullest bodied Aussie Shiraz and California Cab. Extra long finish that is both classic and divine.

Even in 2004, this incredibly huge and complex beauty takes between 14 and 20 hours to decant - but it's worth the wait (assuming you do not have the patience to wait until sometime after 2020 to open it). A true 100-year wine. I think this wine would make most people's top 10 Bordeauxs since 1960.
