Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 15
Bright medium red. Alluring, fully ripe aromas of raspberry, redcurrant, rose petal, spices and underbrush. A step up in vibrancy from the Cherbaudes, with a powerful crushed-stone minerality contributing tautness to the rich flavors of dark berries, spices and saline minerality. The wine's serious tannins are already nicely integrated with its powerful fruit, but this very long, plush wine calls for patience.
