**Note: from vines first planted in 1902; this cuvée is not made every vintage**
This is also sufficiently reduced to render the nose impossible to fairly assess. This is indisputably richer and riper than the regular cuvée with its velvety, powerful and broad-shouldered flavors that display an abundance of dry extract that buffers the notably firm tannins before terminating in a velvety and mouth coating finish. This is a big but not inelegant effort that will need 12 to 15 years to be at its best.
