This Premier Cru benefits from exceptionally good natural conditions, both in the quality of the soil, the position of its vines and their exposure to the sun. It is regarded today as one of the world's greatest wine.

Vintage 1887

Bordeaux: Harvest began September 19th. Anti-mildew treatments were starting coming into effect at this point with the arrival of the Bordeaux Mixture, and the wines were clean and healthy, and largely well-structured. Only a half crop, but better quality than the previous few years. A new law introduced on December 1 of this year obliged winegrowers to declare any new plantings.

Bottle in good condition and filled to top-shoulder. Looking full, mature, brick red and evolved. Intense, refined and opulent on the nose. The taste is refined, elegant, focused, balanced, mature and medium-bodied. With perfumed, raspberry, truffles, tobacco, balsamic, blackcurrant, smoky, mushrooms, dusty, dried-fruit and bread flavor. Medium, gentle, round and lingering. Not recommended. Fine and sophisticated. Decanted 45min and recommend drinking now. Costs about 3k-5k€ per bottle. Not good value for money.
