Estimate
.Displaying beautiful, pure cassis fruit with adjuncts of pralines, sage oil,& sea salt, dense and marrowy in the mouth, it finishes with intense cassis, roasted meat, and subtle chalk & salt minerality. The tannins are extremely refined..
...Densely packed and powerful if a bit youthfully sullen, with a dominant flavor of bitter chocolate. Showing less detail today than the Boudots, but this big, rich wine possesses sound acids and strong tannins..
...aromatic profile of red and black fruit, underbrush, game and iron-infused earth that is strong to the point of pungency and leads to rich but detailed big-bodied and tautly muscled flavors that culminate in a linear and focused finish..
