Tasting Notes

V92

Bright medium red. Raspberry and rose petal aromas are complemented by some earthy nuances. Creamy-sweet on entry, with firm-edged acidity giving shape and penetration to the flavors of red berries, flowers, licorice and pepper. Densely packed and savory, this highly perfumed wine finishes with excellent spicy length and a juiciness that stimulates the taste buds. A charmer.

BH91–94

Reduction dominates the nose at present. By contrast there is once again excellent volume to the dense, powerful and lively medium weight plus flavors that exhibit very good detail on the dusty, serious, palate coating and youthfully austere finish. I like the balance and while this should also reward longer-term cellaring in this case it should be approachable after only 7 to 8 years of aging.
