A rich version, whose fleshy texture envelops cherry, plum, licorice, earth and mint flavors. Balanced, with civilized tannins and a lingering finish that echoes the plum and spice flavors, adding a mineral element. Best from 2025 through 2045. Points: 93/100
Floral perfume, aniseed, red and black berries, a little sweet spice. It’s fine and shapely, mainly red fruits to taste, with fine powdery tannin, a little bergamot tea and ‘mineral’ feel, and a supple finish of good length. Discreet style, and quite finely-wrought, given the warmer year. Lovely wine. Points: 93/100
