Le Petit Mouton 2003

Tasted at Bordeaux Index's "10-Year On" tasting in London. The Le Petit Mouton has an animally, slightly gamey bouquet with touches of sage and white fennel. It is nicely defined but could do with more vigour. The palate is medium-bodied with a slight medicinal entry. This feels quite forward and fleshy. It lacks a little backbone and there is a touch of over-ripeness on the "Tuscan-like" finish. Tasted March 2013.
