Vintage 2015
96 points The Real Review
The bouquet is very fragrant, with floral, raspberry, cassis and blackcurrant fruit aromas, and it comes into its own on the palate where it's very fine and elegant. Great intensity and refinement, with almost juicy fruit sweetness, very fine-grained tannins, tremendous precision and length. Beautiful aromatics include violets. This is exquisite: the best wine of this line that I can recall tasting.
