Tasting Notes
Medium crimson garnet, ochre reflections, broader brightening on the rim. Spicy nuances, fine nougat, ripe red jam, hints of blackberry and cherry. Powerful and complex, firm tannins, juicy and pronounced in fruit texture, chocolaty touch and fine minerality on the finish, shows great length and balance. Further ageing potential. One of the great wine monuments from Bordeaux.
