Tasting Notes

90-92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 16
(destemmed; 42% new oak): Bright, dark red. Pungent raspberry and mineral aromas, along with a salty squid-ink reduction. Very intensely flavored, cool wine that nicely combines enticing sweetness with a strong stony element; lovely inner-mouth tension and perfume here. Finishes very firm and long, with the fine-grained tannins giving the wine grip while avoiding dryness. Today the noble reduction is keeping the wine fresh and energetic. An outstanding village wine in the making.
