This is so beautifully integrated already with dark, stony minerals, slate and graphite, as well as a swathe of ripe blackberries and dark, spicy plums. The palate starts out quite tight and maintains a long, linear shape that pushes deeper and wider into the finish... Superb.
...powerful notes of blackberries, currants, spicy tobacco, and a touch graphite all flow to a deep, rounded, sexy Saint-Emilion that’s beautifully balanced.
...a quiet intensity of chocolate-covered cherries, warm mulberries and plum preserves scents with underlying hints of dried lavender, star anise and potpourri. Medium-bodied, the palate is packed with perfumed black fruit layers, framed by seductively plush tannins and great freshness and finishing with fantastic length.
Ripe and structured... The black currant core and bright acidity of the vintage wonderfully balance the palate concentration. It delights in its exuberant freshness, with a grounding base of tannin.
...powerful and fleshy in the glass, with a good bit of textural depth and overall radiance. Soft, plush and open-knit...
Lush and inviting at first, with tasty raspberry, cassis and plum preserve flavors gliding through, this gains elegance as it moves along, adding light apple wood, floral and tobacco lines. A pretty mineral echo adds length and cut. Pure and stylish.
