Chateau Chasse-Spleen 1996 (review)

This was a treat. Almost ten years old but still dark red. Complex fragrant aromas, of savoury currants. Concentrated firm wine less elegant than on the nose. Very much classic claret, partly a function of the vintage. Though in a somewhat burly style.

Well cellared this should easily last another 10 years.
