"A blend of Taillepieds and Clos des Chênes. Here the even spicier and more elegant nose displays beautifully pure various red and dark berries where a very pretty floral top note appears. While there is only average density the refined and equally pure medium weight flavors possess ample power and minerality on the firm, serious and indisputably built-to-age finish. This youthfully austere effort is excellent though note well that patience is absolutely recommended."
