Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 09
Good saturated red. Blueberry, tobacco and earth on the nose. Suave and silky but boasts excellent energy, with intriguing tobacco and spice notes perking up the dense fruit. This fine-grained grand cru is sexy and harmonious already but should age well. Finishes sweet and very long.
