Drank so much of this wine during the wedding. This is what you would expect from a Saint Estèphe wine, although it does have the modern touch of being softer and being more spicy. Black fruit, cedar, earthy, tobacco and still lots of tannin. I remember that it drank well even after 2 hours but this time finished it within 1.5 hours. Excellent nose, well structured, good acidity. Always so much more better than the 2nd wine! Very good length and aftertaste. Among the St. Estèphe we have drunk in the past few months, simpler and more straight forward among the wines tasted from the region.
