Color: Dark ruby (impressive).

Nose: Fantastic, classic, complex Chinon nose of black raspberry, sweet tree bark, fresh cut herbs, and dark damp soil. Beautiful!

Palate: Med-full to full body.Old vines (60-year-old vines), thus excellent concentration. Plush mid palette. Tart raspberry on the end (typical).

91-92
Beautiful, exceptional Chinon. Drinks beautifully right now. Love this!
