"From a 1.5 ha parcel that is almost entirely in terres rouges . . . . The tautly muscled and imposingly sized flavors are very tight and backwards and it's clear that this is going to be a long distance runner as the finish is austere, strict and very serious. There is however excellent underlying material and impeccable balance but again, this is a 'buy-and-forget' wine."
