"A completely different aromatic profile presents much more sauvage-suffused aromas of pungent earth, forest floor and ripe red berry fruit nuances that are also trimmed in noticeable wood and menthol. The succulent and generous yet entirely serious middle weight plus flavors possess fine mid-palate concentration along with much more prominent supporting tannins on the focused and lingering finale where a hint of rusticity arises. This is really quite good and recommended provided that you have the patience to allow for at least 5 years or so of cellaring." Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, Apr 2017 |
