"(vinified with 100% whole clusters; Thierry Brouin told me in January that the yield of 42 hectoliters per hectare--despite a "big" green harvest--was the largest in his 38 vintages at this estate): Healthy dark red. Very sexy scents of plum, spices and cedar. Rich and silky but not a bit exotic--or even advanced, for that matter--with its seamless flavors of raspberry, spices and soil energized by salty minerality. Boasts terrific inner-mouth energy and tension, no doubt partly due to the stem element. Finishes saline and very long, with edge-free tannins and uncanny lift. At once seductively sweet and youthful, this wine should continue to evolve gracefully . . ."
