"From a rarely seen 1er that measures only 0.64 ha. A discreet hint of wood sets off pure and airy aromas of various dark berry fruit, plum and evanescent whiffs of soft earth and humus. There is good verve and freshness to the tension-filled medium-bodied flavors that exude a lovely minerality onto the ever-so-mildly rustic finish that is otherwise balanced, long and solidly complex."
