Quite barnyardy on the nose, also tobacco, leather and green herbs. Quite developed. The fruit is in the flavour, with cherries and redcurrant, alongside some nice older notes. Medium bodied and still quite tannic. Very nice wine and impressive for the vintage.

Very nice, Ronnie! Big Grin
Had the '92 Poujeaux two or three years ago and your TNs resemble mine quite a lot. Both estates belong to the best of the understated appellation, IMO. Smile

I bought some 1992 futures from Angelus, Clinet, and LLC; all at stunningly low prices and an excellent QPR! But the only bottle of Chasse-Spleen I have is a 1967, which I display along side an empty bottle of 1967 Latour. I think I prefer latour67! Smile
