This is the most complex of the three Rossignol big boys with an overt sauvage character to the stony red currant and wild red berry suffused nose that is trimmed in enough wood to notice. The powerful and full-bodied flavors brim with minerality and plenty of dry extract that imparts a velvety quality to the mid-palate though the wonderfully persistent backend is very firm and altogether serious. There is a coolness and restraint to this moderately austere wine that speaks of its origins and this too should be outstanding in time though note well that plenty of patience will be required.
