Score 92+/100 · Drink 2022-2034, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2016
Bright red. Classy but reticent nose hints at bitter cherry. Densely packed and seriously concentrated, showing superb stony lift to the flavors of black cherry, violet and licorice. Really wonderful 2013 energy and density here, along with sneaky sweetness of fruit. Shows a youthful medicinal aspect but this is a bomb of primary dark fruits (Bitouzet described it as "a Pommard that changed its sex"). Finishes broad and long, with ripe, dusty tannins.
