"Bright medium red. Very ripe aromas of black raspberry, smoky minerality and dried flowers. Plush, highly concentrated, outsized wine, combining grand cru volume with a surprisingly airy texture. Finishes with wonderfully suave tannins that saturate the entire palate and give shape to the wine's fruit. Really outstanding soil-driven depth here. Etienne de Montille described 2013 as 'a good to very good vintage, but 2012 is great, with density, stuffing, and balance.' He went on: 'Even the premier crus from 2012 will need 7 to 12 years of cellaring.' The Domaine vineyards have been certified organic since the 2012 vintage."
