Wow has this opened. Stunning nose of red berry fruit, herbs, granite, red plum, tobacco and so so much granite. Wow the aromas are so potent they are going up my nose and massaging this huge schnozz of mine. Clay pottery studio developing now. A 9.7 nose. The essence of Mauves St. Joseph. Just amazing. It’s ripe but within the context of the vintage. Some malted aromas as well. Palate is ripe, rich, silky and so fresh. The acids in 15 are truly what define this vintage. Allied with the ripeness. Perfect balance with not a hair out of place. Long granitic finish. Wonderful focus, precision and powdery tannins. Amazing length. Superb concentration and insane purity of red berried fruit. Treacly texture. Out of this world. 9.6 for now. After 3 hours it’s gained unreal finesse. So decadent yet also so nimble. So close to a 9.7.

Wow. This is unreal. Nose of herbs, black oozy fruit, granite, blackberry compote, grilled gamey meats, huge granite, mint, menthol, impossibly complex. Classic Mauves St. Joseph. Palate is juicy and very concentrated with just exquisite fruit. Showing maybe 10% of itself but a brilliant 10%. So fresh and dynamic with such fine tannins. Amazing juiciness and depth. So complex and detailed. So fine and refined. Big late breaking tannins that are ripe and so so refined. Amazing purity. What a finish. Gutsy. Brilliant. This finish never ends. What a beautiful oil slick like texture. A baby but I had to try it out. Wait 5 years.

Nose: inky dark blackberries. Palate: deep dense blackberries. Balanced but very dense. Almost monolithic. Most people will like this more than I do. As this opens a bit more elegant.
