An outstanding wine and a great sleeper of the vintage, this second wine exhibits a denser purple color along with a sweet kiss of creme de cassis, licorice, incense and graphite. Fruity and medium to full-bodied , with an impressive texture and supple tannins, this wine should drink well for 10-15 years.
Ripe and racy, offering a nice direct beam of dark plum and macerated black currant fruit, followed quickly by graphite and espresso notes. Fleshy and pure on the finish, with fine-grained tannins.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 17/20 points.
