Small pour. One is reminded how despite changes here the wines are still really stylistically quite "big". You had to pay more attention than you normally would with Amoureuses to sense its more ethereal internal aromatics, because these components here still seem to be hidden behind the wine's sheer scale of fruit. Tannins a little grainy. Some noticeable new oak just now. But it has all the components of a really fine wine - including exceptional length. And it is already delicious. Wait. There is more to come.

Awesome! Great depth of flavours, integrated tannins, great length, great acidity, a wonderful sweetness with a lingering flavours of dark fruits / cherry. Drinkable now but has so much potential to be a wow wine with more time in the bottle. An exceptional wine! This is what Amoureuses is all about.
