...gorgeous, engaging bouquet with a conspicuous oyster shell/marine influence running through the crystalline red berry fruit. There is outstanding aromatics, tension and energy here. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp acidity, harmonious and candied with finer tannin than the Mazoyères-Chambertin that one used to find with Bertrand Maume's wines, blessed with superb salinity and precision on the finish.
Perfumed and floral on the nose, this is pure and utterly seductive...palate is medium-bodied with vivacious red berry fruit, real depth and dimension... Tender finish; this is going to be a beauty.
This red features a chunky profile, packed with black cherry, black currant, graphite and tar flavors. The smoky, toasty, vanilla-accented oak frame adds both sweetness and tannins.
Liqueur-like dark fruits and black olive on the nose. Very rich, pliant and concentrated in a rather wild, soil-driven way. Combines almost syrupy ripeness with a wonderfully tactile mouth feel and finishes very long, with dusty firming tannins.
Sweet and spicy but with a dry, fine texture. Lithe and scented on the palate. Persistent too.
