A weak color revealing plenty of amber and pink at the edge is followed by a light intensity nose of cedarwood, baking spices and washed-out cherry fruit. This wine, which falls apart on the palate, is past its prime.
Aromas of earth, blackberry and spices follow through to a full-bodied palate, with ripe tannins and a decadently fruity finish. Serious wine. Best after 2008. 12,500 cases made.
Scents of sweet currants, figs, crushed rocks, and herbs appear in De Fieuzal’s light to moderately intense aromatics. The wine possesses decent acidity, medium body, moderate tannin, and an attractive texture. While it will not make old bones, for drinking over the next 10-15 years, it is a pleasant effort.
This is a soft, evolved Pessac-Leognan with a dark ruby/plum color, medium body, extremely low acidity, and pretty strawberry and cherry flavors gently infused with graphite, dried herbs, and spice box. It will drink well when released, and last for a decade.
