93 AM. "From a 0.35 ha parcel. In contrast to the highly expressive noses of the preceding wines, this is restrained to the point of only grudgingly revealing notably ripe aromas of black raspberry, cherry and floral hints. The rich, full-bodied and quite amply concentrated medium-bodied flavors possess excellent mid-palate density as the sap almost completely hides the otherwise very firm tannic spine, all wrapped in a dusty, pure and seriously long finish. This beautifully balanced and refined effort displays sneaky length and is more of a wine of finesse than power." Burghound.com, Jan 10, 2012 |
