Estimate
A pure red, saturated with black cherry, black currant, violet, spice and mineral notes, showing a dense, almost chunky feel. A beam of vivid acidity cuts through, adding grace and focusing the flavors. Fine length.
...blackberry, raspberry, hints of singed leather and spice... The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, a fine bead of acidity, chalky in texture with a grip and certainly impressive focus on the finish. This is an excellent Morey-Saint-Denis.
It delivers a joyous, well-defined and concentrated bouquet with a mixture of black and blue fruit... The palate is medium-bodied with fresh acidity, and there is superb density here. It feels lively and tensile without compromising the backbone...layers of black fruit tinged with graphite toward the finish.
...pretty, pure, elegant and airy aromas of both red and dark pinot fruit that are cut with varying degrees of earth, floral and spice wisps plus an interesting hint of orange peel. The rich, sleek and beautifully delineated middle weight flavors also flash good minerality, all wrapped in a firm and serious but not especially austere finale where the only nit is a hint of warmth.
Great drive and silky tannins. Lots of energy and definition.
