Tasting Notes

**Note: from a 1.37 ha parcel of 60+ year old vines situated close to the Château; vinified with 50% whole clusters**
Background floral notes combine with ripe, earthy, somber and notably serious aromas that lead to dense, powerful and tautly muscular flavors that brim with an amazing amount of tannin-buffering dry extract, all wrapped in a velvety, firm and linear finish. This is genuinely sensational and one of the very best examples of the appellation in the 2009 vintage though I hasten to point out that patience will be required.
