**Note: approximately 45+ year old vines from 2 different climats, 90% of which is in Les Poulaillères and the other 10% is in Clos St. Denis**
A ripe, elegant and densely fruited nose exudes notes of violets, sandalwood, anise and dried black berries that precede supple, rich and attractively voluminous flavors that retain a fine sense of underlying detail on the wonderfully intense, persistent and quite firm finish. This is an absolutely stunning wine and every bit as good as the genuinely remarkable 2005.
A fine even mid red, evolving gently. Some bouquet at the start but it explodes with a very short time in the glass. Sublime intensity, with a really fine cut glass chiselled intensity. The fruit is ripe but the stems reel any potential excess back in, even to the extent of offering a refreshing green note. One of the most complex wines of the day. ***** 5 star wine.
