Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London.The 2006 Clos du Marquis has a typical bouquet for this cru with forward and lavish black cherries, cassis and incense aromas, perhaps more oaky than some of its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with an insistent grip in the mouth. This is surprisingly backward with impressive density. You can feel the weight of black fruit in the mouth, although it needs more finesse and precision on the finish. Give this another five years and you could have a "dark horse" on your hands. Tasted January 2016.
Tasted blind. Dark crimson and quite racy and fruity. Still a bit pinched on the end. (JR)
Very dark and brambly-looking. A bit burnt and tarry on the nose. Sweet and actually a little soft on the palate. Uncomfortably charry and a little mean on the pre-finish (a Blatch term). (JR)
