Description: Consists of 12 Bottles, 0.75L
Packaging: OWC.
Score: 99 RP.
"From very small yields of 22 hectoliters per hectare, this wine flirted with perfection on each occasion I tasted it. It is a sensational effort – if you can find it. The wine is dense purple and stunningly rich, with lots of crushed rock and chalky notes from the limestone soils as well as blueberry and black berry liqueur intermixed with some smoky barbecue and an aroma that reminded me of tea-smoked duck. Thick, rich and full, its glycerine and concentration hide some rather lofty tannins This is another prodigious effort from proprietor Michel Gracia – it’s just a shame he doesn’t make more wine." Wine Advocate #205, Feb 2013
Provenance: The Sea Cliff Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $1,300
