"Red-ruby. More sauvage, soil-specific aromas of wild plum, cherry, smoke, spice and game. Very sweet and suave in the mouth; this has real velour, not to mention superb fruit and purity of flavor. Perfumed from start to finish. Impeccably balanced and easy to taste. Finishes very long, with thoroughly buffered tannins. This may always be pleasant to taste. The most complete Clos-Saint-Jacques I've yet tasted from Sylvie Esmonin."
