savory red fruit with lots of stuffing. tasted next to the '06 which was much more ready to drink, providing excellent instruction in the ageworthyness of this cuvee. hold

Rubinrot. Die Nase zeigt Leder, Kirsche, Feigen, florale Töne. Im Auftakt dicht, reiffruchtig, wuchtig und dennoch elegant und sehr frisch, merklich Tannin, ein Tick Rustikalität schwingt hier mit. Im Abgang langanhaltend. Ein Charakterkopf mit Charme. Verträgt durchaus ein kräftiges Essen. Jetzt bis 2033

Super fresh and just crystalline pure fruit; morello cherry, tart raspberry, floral; anise, mint; super vibrant and long; disappeared quickly and enjoyed by all. I love this stuff.

Coravin. Initially reticent, but this opened up with an hour of air. Medium youthful ruby color; medium intensity aromatics with elegant red fruits, some leafy greens, slight herbal and mint, pine needle; palate is medium bodied, elegant medium-plus acidity throughout, very balanced and well integrated medium tannins, medium 13.5% alcohol, still quite primary red fruit but with a bit of musk and funk that suggests some age; medium length finish. This will likely improve for a decade, but it’s also quite nice now. 92 Really enjoyable, juicy fruit. Great wine with pizza. I enjoyed this very much.

This is indeed quite elegant in style, with light to medium weight but impressive concentration and persistence on the finish. There's still a light tannic frame remaining, and I don't yet find the bottle sweetness that would indicate maturity. The nose could also use some more time to open beyond the dark berry fruit and incipient leather notes.
