Tasting Notes

**Note: from a .55 ha parcel in En Orveaux with vines planted in 1924 and 1979; vinified with 33% whole clusters**
Here too there is a whiff of herbal tea to the super spicy red currant and overtly floral-suffused nose with its notes of lavender and rose petal. The medium weight flavors are bigger and richer though less mineral-inflected with an abundance of mouth coating dry extract that imparts a velvety mouth feel and buffers the firm structure on the lingering finish. This is a robust and powerful but not rustic effort thanks to the fine grain of the tannins.

Once again reduction dominates the nose. Here the medium weight flavors are bigger and richer though less mineral-inflected with an abundance of mouth coating dry extract that imparts a velvety mouth feel and buffers the firm structure on the lingering finish. This is a robust and powerful but not rustic effort thanks to the fine grain of the tannins.
