Tasting Notes

Here too noticeable reduction knocks down the expressiveness of the nose but the underlying fruit appears quite ripe as to the rich, full, mouth coating and seductively textured big-scaled flavors that don't possess quite the same definition of the Bonnes Mares but offer even more complexity as well as more buffering dry extract on the superbly long finish. While I have not tasted the d'Auvenay version yet, this, along with the Dugat-Py are among the very top examples of the '08 vintage. Drink: 2020+
