A stunningly complex nose of black fruit, warm earth, game and a plethora of spice notes gives way to broad-shouldered, powerful and overtly muscular flavors that are firm and intense but not rustic as the compact tannins are more than well-buffered by the plenitude of dry extract on the mouth coating, explosive and hugely persistent finish. This is robust but in a sleek and athletic fashion rather than that of a sumo wrestler.
Good bright medium red. Medicinal cherry liqueur, red licorice and spicy oak on the nose. Then penetrating and intense but suave, with lovely sappiness to the flavors of raspberry, cranberry and flowers. The grower Jadot buys this fruit from has recently added a vibrating sorting table, and converted entirely to new stainless steel fermentation tanks as of 2010.
