"Good deep red. Perfumed aromas of stony raspberry and red licorice . . . . Very densely packed; has an aspect of austerity but also enticing sweetness of fruit and lovely inner-mouth perfume. Superbly structured for long life. Very long finish features firm but enrobed tannins. This has real grand cru persistence and class. Millet says it's even more precise than it's showing today, following the recent racking."
