"From a 0.90 ha parcel. Strikingly perfumed, spicy and now mostly mature aromas speak of a mix of both red and dark currant, earth and exotic tea nuances. There is outstanding complexity to the velvety, pure and intense middle weight plus flavors that possess that beguiling sense of underlying tension before culminating in a mouth coating and gorgeously persistent finish. This remains quite firm though it's not as austere as the Chapelle and for my taste this could be drunk with pleasure . . ."
