The lush, dark, opulent, richly styled wine is packed with soaring aromatics with its chocolate, black fruits, espresso, flowers, and black cherry profile. Full-bodied, deep, and intense, this hedonistic gem should deliver pleasure for at least another 15 or more years. Drink from 2024-2040.

Lovely with beef bourguignon. Benefited from 3 hour decant and got even better with food and another hr. Elegant, refined, the subtleties are stunning.

The wine was inky-purple colored. A is moderate sediment in the bottle. It smells like mineral, forest floor, cedar, rose, raspberry and black currant (cassis). Flavors of raspberry, black currant (cassis), mushroom, black pepper and plum. Medium bodied wine that felt smooth and round in the mouth. Nice medium long finish. There are enough tannins and acid to think this wine has at least another 10-15 years at a near peak drinking window

From magnum. Fresh and very fruit forward. Almost tastes more Napa the Bordeaux.
