93 Points

Saturday, April 26, 2014 - Monopole 1st Growth Tasting: This is showing a little age, but is still beautiful, showing pine sappy notes with dried herbs and leaves, underbrush, but also cherry notes and hints of blackberry and red currants. Elegant, with fine resolving tannins and a long, tangy finish. This was a big change of pace from the stellar mid-90's wines prior to this, but still lovely elegant, and expressive. I would say this is mature now and will hold for quite some time.
