...offers cherry and currant flavors, with hints of violet, black pepper and spice, underlined by a beam of tannins...excellent concentration and length.
...full of blackberry, briary, cold limestone and just a hint of baking powder in the background lending sweetness. The palate is sensual on the entry. There is roundness and depth here, coupled with very good substance, a hint of white pepper perhaps, and as always, with immense precision on the finish.
...highly nuanced nose offers aromas of redcurrant, dark raspberry, milk chocolate, earth and animal fur, plus a riper suggestion of prune... Wonderfully silky and ripe...wonderfully refined, thoroughly ripe...
The understated nose only grudgingly reveals cool and ultra-pure aromas of violet, herbal tea, spice and a broad mélange of wild red berries. There is a really lovely vibrancy to the superbly well-detailed medium weight flavors that are intensely stony with a sleek and polished palate feel that carries over to the impeccably well-balanced, hugely persistent and youthfully austere finale.
Very enveloping. Round and friendly. Tannins gentle and there is already definite sweetness here. Good structure but surprisingly approachable. Some grainy tannin on the very persistent finish...
