An ultra-elegant and high-toned nose speaks of cool and almost aloof highly refined aromas of truffle, mineral, floral hints and red pinot fruit that merge seamlessly into precise, intense and tautly muscled medium full flavors that deliver excellent depth and length. This is really a lovely effort as the balance is impeccable and the length is flat out superb. While this could be enjoyed now as the underlying material is ripe, I would strongly advise waiting for at least 5 years and preferably 10.
Good full red. Soil-driven aromas of black cherry, raspberry, minerals, smoked meat and underbrush. Fat and slightly saline but youthfully closed today, hinting only at a subtle sweetness. This is best right now on the back end, which features excellent breadth and lingering perfume, as well as finer tannins than the Mazy or Ruchottes.
A background touch of wood spice sets off the cool and almost aloof but highly refined aromas of truffle, mineral, floral hints and red pinot fruit that merge seamlessly into precise, intense and tautly muscled medium full flavors that deliver excellent depth and length. This is really a lovely effort as the balance is impeccable.
