"Good deep red-ruby. Black cherry and licorice aromas are lifted by a sappy floral quality. Juicy and concentrated, offering terrific vibrancy and a sensation of chewy extract. Strong minerality contributes to the impression of density without weight. Impeccably balanced, stony and long. From a crop level of less than 30 hectoliters per hectare, according to Dominique Lafon."
