A ripe and agreeably fresh nose offers up aromas of violet, red currant and earth, all of which is trimmed in whiffs of abundant spice as well as enough oak to point out. The mouth feel of the middle weight flavors is more elegant than the Grèves while delivering very good if not truly exceptional depth and persistence on the bitter cherry-inflected finish. This moderately firmly structured effort should drink well after 6 to 8 years of cellaring but reward 10+
