"Full ruby. Superripe, deep aromas of dark berries and smoked meat, with a resiny suggestion of surmaturité; less pristine than the Griottes. Huge, superconcentrated and opulent, with a liqueur-like ripeness verging on exotic. This has Chambertin-like depths. Extremely long, slow-mounting flavors go on and on. A wine of great brooding power."
