Tuesday, April 26, 2022 - En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): From double magnum
Polished, rich, dense initially, ripe, concentrated, still exceedingly powerful on the nose, some alcohol prickle, ripe blackcurrant tends to cassis and a little rubbery reductiveness. In the mouth it is juicy with loads of ripe fruit, massive power is crazy but also precise, chalky and oaky tannins in support, alcohol warmth is contained. A beast but a rather splendid on with incredible potential – Double magnum goes some way to explaining its relative youthfulness.
