Description
Lovely, rich, ripe purple. The nose has some floral notes amongst the vigorous red fruit, but on the palate, this is more backward than the other Grand Crus. It is ultra-concentrated yet also notably austere at the moment. In autumn, this offered a huge, rich mouthful of fruit with an incredible flavour weight behind: raspberry and black fruit, plus some minerals. It is a wine of potential majesty but not yet in the sumptuous state that it will attain. Judging by the results of earlier vintages with time in bottle, it needs more time to express just how magical this will be.
