"Bright, full red. Minerally aromas of cherry, smoke, game and menthol. Fat and ripe but youthfully backward and showing less obvious sweetness than the Chevrets. But this structured, juicy wine shows excellent mineral lift and carries . . . gracefully. Finishes long and firm, with nicely buffered tannins."
