Tasting Notes

**Note: from 5 different parcels situated all over the appellation that total 1.17 ha; 60% new wood**
Once again there is a background application of oak visible on the intensely earthy and beautifully complex nose of dark berries, fruit, earth, violet and animale scents. There is good size, weight and power to the overtly muscular and stony flavors that possess terrific punch on the firm, youthfully austere and mouth coating finish where a touch of wood emerges. This relatively opulent effort exhibits simply terrific depth and I particularly like the balance here. In a word, impressive.
