"Reserved and understated in every respect with remarkable purity and precision in its delivery. The fruit is decidedly red in character followed by pronounced mineral notes, deceptive density and yet for all that, it is the intensity of the finish that really distinguishes this wine. The subtlety and harmony are quite impressive and it would be fair to say that it is the polar opposite of wines fashioned in the so-called modern school of Burgundy. Silk and lace in a glass."
