94 AM. "From a huge 3 ha parcel superbly placed high on the slope, across from the Château; there will be no special cuvée in 2012. Subtle oak frames intensely an earthy yet cool and airy red and dark berry fruit suffused nose that is trimmed in gentle hints of spice and sandalwood. The mid-palate of the middle weight flavors is quite supple and round though the vibrant and highly complex finish tightens up immediately. I like the balance and sense of tension and overall, this should also age beautifully yet also be reasonably approachable in its youth. Burghound.com, Jan 15, 2015 |
