The fruit is well-aged, with a very light body and thin palate. The tannin is a bit rough but aeration smoothed it out. Pleasant, but not stellar. Drink now (2020).

Compared with the '10 and '12 of the same cuvee, this one suffered. Still fine, but rather thinner and more acidic than the others. The '11s in general have not come around much, but hope prevails.

Nice rich black cherry, plum aromas, a bit hard and thin on the palate.
