Château Guillot 1996

97: dark garnet-purple. Deep bouquet; wild berries and truffle. Full-bodied, rich palate, plenty of glycerol and a delicate melt in the extract, good astringency, a magnificent powerhouse, even if it doesn’t exactly boast finesse. Potential: 17/20 2003 – 2018

Bordeaux-red color. Lively. Nose of medium intensity. Fruity. Fresh. Pepper note upon swirling. Attack a bit too soft. Fruity, friendly structure, developing with a small dip mid-palate, leading to a finish with firm tannicity, a little tight. Medium persistence.
