“Dark, almost black ruby, opaque core, violet reflections. On the nose very fine vinous aromas, subtle notes of candied violets, chocolate, ripe dark berry fruit underlay, mineral hints, Pomerol-like nuances, a very attractive bouquet. On the palate juicy, very elegant, ripe plum and orange fruit, fresh acidity which binds the structure well, fine chocolaty finish, very precise, on the finish the sweetness of the wine becomes more pronounced, mineral finish, very promising, excellent aging potential, a very successful example from this vintage.”
