Structured, dark ruby (deeper than the decade-younger 2013), with beautifully judged smoked oak notes. Shows the classic structure of St Julien, dark cassis and blackberry fruits, mint leaf on the finish, tobacco and cigar, a delicious wine, great example of how the best wines of the Médoc are imprinted by vintage character, but it never overshadows the estate signature. Harvest September 23 to October 11, 80% new oak. Eric and Jacques Boissenot consultant.
