Tasting Notes

92-94
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 17
Bright ruby-red. Very pure aromas of black cherry, violet and bitter chocolate, lifted by a mineral topnote. At once creamy and juicy, offering terrific density and energizing minerality to its sappy black fruit and floral flavors. Impeccably balanced, soil-driven, extract-rich wine with a restrained sweetness and considerable class. Stains the palate and glistens on the bracing, very long finish. Yet another example of how cooler sites excelled in this very warm year.
