"Saturated red. Sexy red and dark berry aromas, with vanillin oak spice and fresh floral character expanding with air. Supple and sweet, with a velvety texture, deep raspberry and cherry-vanilla flavors and good mineral snap. Combines depth and vivacity, and finishes broad, sappy and persistent. I suspect that this will gain complexity with a few years of aging but it's already seductive." Vinous, Jun 2008 |
