Medium, medium-plus cherry-red colour, edged with purple. High-toned, and initially slightly diffuse and alcoholic but the aromas show a great depth of brooding fruit. Absolutely mouth-filling and complex. Very. very long with a mineral vein – superbly long – fantastic.

The nose needs a little coaxing, but soon shows reasonable width, but a stunning fruit depth and the faintest creme brulée. Silken and soft in the mouth, yet powerful – that tannin is buried and the balance is a wonder. It bursts across the mid-palate before slowling lingering in the finish. A ‘wow’ wine. Of-course, also sold-out at the domaine!
