98-99 TA. "4 ha, 100% Syrah, 65 year old vines on granite from Les Bessards. Characteristically inky, herbal and straight in profile. Very full and round, juicy and packed with fruit. Very intense, really injects the palate with dynamic fruit, acid, fine tannins and minerals. Layer upon layer of texture and flavour. Very long indeed, more powerful and saline than recent vintages. Some spice on the finish. 2022 to 2054." Tim Atkin MW, TimAtkin.com, Dec 2016 |
