...very intense, detailed bouquet with pure blackberry, raspberry, crushed stone and dried violet aromas... The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, grippy and dense and yet not overpowering. The oak is very well assimilated...
...one of the most immediately appealing...very ripe black fruits, and there’s still a lot of structure behind it...
Shows good tension, featuring a singed iron note running from start to finish, wrapped in dark plum and red currant fruit, with savory and tobacco accents.
...delightful, well-defined bouquet of blackberry, cedar and pencil box... The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin on the entry, good weight in the mouth and that Pauillac-like graphite tincture on the finish extant...
... Really exciting lift and stoniness on the nose. Opulent and round... Almost syrupy texture!
