Beautifully rendered fruit that offer exquisite detail and a refined yet earthy character followed by fine, relatively rich and intense flavors plus a wonderfully long finish. The fruit and flavors are still entirely primary and I particularly like the elegance and evident breed. A lovely wine that is no where near ready, not one would necessarily expect a 6 year old grand cru to be approaching its peak and this has the balance and acid backbone to live for 25 years.

This bright, dark ruby-colored wine is superb. Rose, violet, lily, perfume, cherry, blackberry, and earth aromas lead to a full-bodied, velvety-textured, and immensely refined wine. This feminine, yet powerful beauty is magnificently proportioned, balanced, and reveals creamy blackberries, candied cherries, and hints of chocolate in its complex, concentrated and pure personality. Its immensely long finish reveals a firm backbone.
