Tasting Notes

90-93
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 16
Medium red. Initially conveyed a lovely perfumed character to the aromas of raspberry, mocha and minerals but went into a shell in the glass. Fat and sweet in the mouth but showing less lift than the Latricières in the early going. Finishes savory and dry. This very concentrated, seriously tannic wine will require patience.
