"Moderately saturated medium red. Lovely aromas of musky raspberry, cherry, licorice and flowers, with complicating soil tones; compellingly high-pitched for 2009. Then silky, sweet and creamy in the mouth, with excellent breadth to its red fruit and floral flavors. A very open-knit style but quite fresh. The long finish features a whiplash of cherry and minerals. Superb village wine." Vinous, Mar 2012 |
