Tasting Notes

92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 03
Deep, fresh red with ruby tones. Vibrant, perfumed aromas of black raspberry, cherry, violet, minerals, coffee and bitter chocolate. Urgently fresh and highly concentrated, with flavors of black raspberry, cocoa powder, minerals and sweet oak. Solidly structured but already quite seamless. Finishes with firm tannic spine, strong torrefaction notes and explosive length.
