(from a .60 ha parcel in a vineyard that is rarely seen as it’s quite small). The markedly cool but ripe aromas of cassis, plum, spice and earth introduce equally pure middle weight flavors that possess very solid mid-palate concentration thanks to the abundant dry extract. There is a real sense of volume on the lightly mineralinfused finish that delivers excellent length. This is firm but not aggressive and should amply reward 10 to 12 years of bottle age. (90-92)/2022+
