Remarkable intensity on the nose, with rare notes of apricot, pineapple and peach. Hints of white pepper and red fruits reveal themselves on the second nose.The attack is round with very elegant tannins. The wine is wonderfully smooth and velvety in texture, with exceptional length, reinforced by a strong aromatic finish.

Deep garnet red. A bit vegetal on the backend of the nose, dried cherries, black currants, damp leaves and tobacco. Medium plus tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Very dry on the palate with lots of cherries, earthiness, and baking spices. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2030.

En magnum. Decanted for six hours. Tremendous now but will benefit from another 15-20 years.
