  C'est très bon! Un côte-rotie comme ont les aimes avec un bel équilibre de puissance et de finesse. Le nez est bien expressif comme la bouche avec une abondance de fruits noirs et une finale légèrement fumé. Même si les tannins sont biens intégrés, je crois que le vin peut encore se bonifier et gagner en finesse et en définition des saveurs. Décanté 2 heures avant le souper et il continuait a s'améliorer dans le verre.

  When I had my first glass of this I was bored. My sense was that it was overrated. The wine has been under coravin for 1 month and today it is magnificent. I opened it and it is just amazing. The wine is balanced, perhaps feminine in texture. Coffee, chocolate roasted meat, roasted chestnuts. So much complexity, the wine just makes you excited for the next sip. Deep black fruits, lush, spicy long and complete.

  Deep, dark, rich nose, without the lifted, floral character you often get from red wines with Viognier in them. Really smooth in the mouth. Again, plenty of dark fruits, with a smoky richness; almost savoury. Tannins well integrated. Plenty of character. Well and truly into its drinking window and very drinkable it is. No hurry - I suspect that it'll last for many years yet.

  Nez de café moka, bois brûlé, violettes, beaucoup d'élevage.
  La bouche a une belle texture, de la fraicheur et un équilibre très correct. Mais franchement trop d'élevage. Pourquoi? Ce vin n'a pas la structure et le fond pour vieillir. Décevant. Va-t-il intégrer ce bois?
