Popped 45 mins before pouring, did not decant, cork came out easily in perfect shape, beautiful St Julien.
Now close to peak in my opinion, integrated tannins, layers of lovely complexity with dark fruits and minerals in every sip along with hints of forest floor, tobacco and leather.
Really enjoyed it – open within next few years, or right now. Not for long term storage at this stage in my view.

Do you have photos of the color?
Also curious no was this a bottle put out at release or was it a ex-Chateau bottle from a few years ago?
