  The black fruits, dark red berries, flowers, licorice, spice, smoke, and crème de cassis in the perfume is a knockout! The wine is rich, balanced, well-defined, supple, creamy, and vibrant. The fruits have weight, depth, length, and purity. The concentrated layers of fruit start off strong, and keep on going. The refreshing waves of red with black fruits, sprig of mint, and touches of spice hang with you for close to 50 seconds in the up-beat finish. The wine blends 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot. 14% ABV, 3.7 pH. The harvest took place September 6 - September 30. Only 55% of the harvest was placed into the Grand Vin. Drink from 2030-2060. 95-97 Pts.

  96-98 Punkte. Himmlischer Duft, viel Tiefgang, ein Fächer von Aromen und ein Gaumen voller Präzision, dicht, fokussiert, messerscharfe Tannine, blitzsaubere Frucht, grandiose Länge. Ein raffinierter Calon, der Gänsehaut macht. (En Primeur Tasting April 2024, 14 Alkohol)
