Tasting Notes

**Note: from 50+ year old vines; a monopole of the domaine**
A beautifully broad ranging nose combines remarkably fresh notes of raspberry, plum, violet, rose petal and wet stone hints. There is also a discreet minerality to the detailed, intense and breathtakingly pure middle weight flavors that are shaped by firm but fine tannins as well as outstanding depth and length on the impeccably well-balanced finish. A superb vintage for this consistently excellent wine.
