91-93 ST. "Musky pineapple and stone on the nose. Rich and voluminous, with sexy yellow fruit and herbal tea flavors conveying a strong impression of sucrosite Very complex and brisk wine; minerally and firm but not at all hard or dry. Finishes suave and long, with lingering oily perfume. This large cuvee is the product of seven different vinifications, according to Philippe Drouhin."
