Even better in the bottle than it was in barrel, the wine exudes smoke, licorice, cocoa, plums and cherries in the nose. On the palate, the wine is lush, soft, and silky with layers of lusciously-textured plums that linger. It is easy to see why they were recently reclassified as a Grand Cru Classe. Drink from 2024-2042.

Licorice, black plums, oak, roasted cherries and bitter chocolate standout on the nose. Forward, lush, round and polished, the sweetness, freshness, soft textures and ripe fruits on the palate and finish are all working together perfectly this year. 91-93
