This is certainly one of, if not the, most floral wine in the range in 2011 with the possible exceptional of the Richebourg. The extraordinarily elegant and airy nose is positively kaleidoscopic in its sheer breadth of spice elements that combine with the stunningly pure red and black raspberry fruit aromas. The lacy, intense and beautifully precise middle weight flavors are harmonious and impeccably well-balanced on the fabulously long finish. Textbook RSV.

Bright, deep red-ruby. Aromas of blackberry and crushed rock show an almost chocolatey ripeness. Very dense, pure and impressively rich, with the very ripe chocolatey character continuing on the palate. The broad finish features mouthcoating tannins. Less classic than the 2010 version but there's major material here.
