"Good bright medium red. Sexy aromas of redcurrant, strawberry, smoke and minerals. Round, seamless and rich, combining the volume of the vintage with a restrained sweetness. The palate offers spicy red fruits, flowers and crushed stone, not to mention impressive persistence, but the wine's serious tannins call for cellaring. I like the influence of some whole clusters here." Vinous, Mar 2012 |
