Ordered on a whim of Cafe Boulud's wine list. Apparently, Emanuel had purchased at a Zachy's auction. Let me tell you the wine was fantastic! Beautiful aromas of flowers and earth, and an incredibly balanced palette of light red fruits, must, and rose petals. Minimal although present tannins, moderate acidity, both in balance with each other, and a decidely long finish. Truly a spectacular wine that paired well with our lamb and veal. Would order another bottle again in a heartbeat, even at the asking price of $385.
