Full red. Noble aromas of spicy red berries, red cherry, minerals and rose petal. Densely packed and wonderfully perfumed, with sappy, vibrant flavors of red fruits, minerals and flowers. Very subtle wine, boasting a superb tannin/acid spine without being at all hard. Finishes very long, with haunting floral perfume. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous Media

This is just brilliant. Really, it doesn't get better than this. I'd like to see how it develops later tonight. But it's too good. So I drank it.

HOLY HANNAH! It's not often one can say that paying $475 for a bottle of Burgundy in a restaurant is reasonable but given how great this wine is it sure as hell was--PHENOMENAL!
