Estimate
There's a unique dark, brooding side to this red. Black cherry, licorice, sandalwood, tobacco and woodsy spice notes mingle with dense tannins on the powerful frame, leading to a superb aftertaste of sweet fruit, spice and mineral.
Very rich & haunting on the nose with truffles & violets... so much stuffing! Liqueur red burgundy… Great energy & muscularity. Wonderful silkiness... Enormous persistence without heaviness... Thoroughly energetic. Absolutely heavenly...
...red currant & wild red berries that are openly mineral-inflected... extremely fine... ample power & vibrancy, palate feel is all silk & satin... will be considered one of the all-time great vintages for this incredibly storied wine...
...this is going to be a rich, generous nose & of all the crus in 2010, this bears the most semblance to the 2009. Scents of wild strawberry, raspberry coulis, peach skin and candied around peel abound...
Ineffable high-pitched aromas of raspberry, pomegranate, cranberry, spices, flowers & white pepper. Wonderfully sappy & fine-grained with outstanding inner-mouth mineral-driven perfume... pungent red berries, flowers and spices...
