94 Points

Saturday, September 24, 2011 - Luxurious bouquet with a lot of toasted oak, tobacco, cedar and all the other luxurious elements. On the palate a lot of juicy cassis, the same impressions as in the bouquet, a touch of sweetness and beautiful round tannin with still enough power and good acidity. Long finish. Approachable, luxurious and complex wine. Young adult stage now and will probably improve for at least another 3 years and be a beauty a decade or more after that. Great wine! 94 for now and potential for at least 95.
