November 9, 2018 - Dinner at Troquet with Henry: Damn right amazing wine. Just so classy from start to finish. Deep brooding ruby color with extremely long legs. The bouquet is unfathomably pungent, concentrated and so powerful. The scent just leaps out from the glass effortlessly. On the nose, the wine boasts plenty of strawberries, macerated cherries, musk, leather, smoked meats, violets, basil and star anise. Absolutely cracking nose with plenty of power, class and finesse. On the palate, the wine is luxuriously silky and expansive as power wrestles with weightlessness. The juice cascades down with layers upon layers of strawberry-flavored fruit rollups, menthol, candied violets, smoked meats, racy minerals, kirsch and allspice. Absolutely mesmerizing, relaxing and ethereal. The wine then leaves with dignity in a lingering finish. It is feminine and beguiling at the same time. The juice of heavens.
