A light and almost burgundy in character but then opening up after 30 minutes in the glass to reveal black currant, cedar and a hint of cinnamon. 91 points Niveau: High shoulder.
WINESPECTATOR / JAMES SUCKLING (95)
What a nose here, from crushed mulberry to tanned leather to tar. Full-bodied, with big, velvety tannins that are soft and caressing, like cashmere. This is so tight and powerful still; it seems to be holding back.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 19/20 points.
