Estimate
A beauty, pure, sleek and supple, featuring red cherry, raspberry, floral and mineral aromas and flavors. Juicy and impeccably balanced, this red has grip, ending in a long, kaleidoscopic finish.
Tightly wound, precise aromas of black cherry, blueberry, licorice and minerals. Then superripe and highly concentrated but not liqueur-like in the mouth, with a compelling sweetness and perfume to its extremely primary berry flavors.
There is excellent underlying material and this should be capable of up to a decade of improvement and should hold for several more. In sum, this is a refined Corton in the context of the appellation.
