Tasting Notes

Youthfully intense cassis, blackberry, and plum are layered with violet, licorice, eucalyptus, and earthy tones. Super-concentrated and energetic, it’s built on firm, ripe tannins and finishes long with a persistent savory-spice note.

Food Paring

Pair with roast rib of beef, rack of lamb, or venison to meet the wine’s structure and depth. Truffle sides, sautéed wild mushrooms, or a rich bordelaise sauce elevate its graphite-and-dark-fruit character.

Professional Reviews

"A great wine, the summation of a great vintage in Bordeaux. The core of richness, the dense, bone-dry tannins, the black currants, red berries and black plum skins are the elements, but it’s the way they have been integrated that makes this such an impressive wine. There is great elegance as well, a fabulous counterpoint to such power. Cellar for at least 15 years, but this will keep forever."
