  I too thought this wine is a bit modern in style, but very enjoyable. I also found it a bit reserved on the nose, fruit hidden behind slightly damp forest floor. Lots of fruit comes at you on the palate, and then minerality and well-integrated tannins dominate the finish.

  Un peu sévère à l’ouverture, il se révèle après 90 minutes.
  Nez de fruit noir, un peu de fleurs mauves. Le vin est puissant mais les tanins sont fins, enrobés par le fruit. Il a la race de ce grand terroir, une profondeur un peu terreuse, avec une dimension minérale captivante. Bonne longueur, la finale est précise et suave. Rien ne dépasse. un vin de texture, auquel il ne manque que la complexité aromatique pour être très grand. Ne boudons pas notre plaisir, le style est un peu moderne, certes, mais c’est diablement bon! 93 pts

  91 AM: Tasting note: A lightly spiced nose evidences a hint of smoke as well as plenty of minerality on the ripe cassis, plum and violet infused nose. There is excellent richness and mid-palate concentration to the suave, round and mouth coating flavors that possess fine delineation before terminating in a mineral-inflected, dusty and impressively persistent finish. Lovely

  Wonderful attractive complex savoury (brambles in a forest, mushrooms, beets) aroma. Fresh, rich palate. Oak plays an important flavour role, but it’s integrated.
  
  Seriously good wine.
  
  Drink over the next 5 years. No reason to wait. No rush either.
  
  13.5%, cork

  Nez de cerise et de canneberge, de terre, de sous-bois, d'épices...clou de girofle, de plant de tomates, de fumé et de taillures de crayon...très beau ! Un vin vif, riche et charpenté. Corsé aux tannins fins...saveurs de fruits mûr...cassis ? Équilibré et long. Boire d'ici 2025.
