Distinctive freshness on the nose reflecting the year’s cool growing cycle. Appealing floral fragrance with roses, but also some thyme with delicate pine resin and forest notes. On the palate, finely concentrated with a rich texture of black fruit and dark chocolate. Fine-grained tannins underwrite the wellproportioned structure and balance is provided from the acidity of the cool year. The long and complex aftertaste reveals tea and tobacco leaf.

"Cellar Selection"

This is the top wine from the grand estate created in the 1820s. It is a rich and spicy wine, powerfully textured with solid tannins and a great potential. The wine, with its dark coffee aroma and dense core, is likely to be ready from 2028. - RV

A well-spiced red, with graphite, anise and dark chocolate accents to the flavors of sun-dried cherry and damson plum preserves. Fine, taut tannins firm the racy finish. - A.N.
