Earthy herbal nose, swarthy attack that is nicely smooth. It has grace but not concentration or intensity, lacks depth or umph.

Lost Friday afternoon gathering – 08 Cristal and Dom, Raveneau, Rayas, Chevillon, Gouges and etc. (Black Salt, Washington DC): Very “Gouges” masculine expression of mineral, iron and earth. Mostly black fruit. Excellent concentration and structure but lacks finesse and charm for my palate. Everyone prefers more red fruit and purer expression of the 98 Chevillon LSG. It still doesn't show much sous bois. Not sure how this will evolve.
