Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (89-92)(70% merlot and 30% cabernet franc, from vines reportedly averaging 100 years of age) Bright red-ruby. Aromas of raspberry liqueur and minerals, lifted by a floral topnote. Chewy and a bit reduced, but with a juicy character and lovely cut to its flavors of blackberry, violet, licorice and bitter chocolate. This firmly constructed, persistent wine conveys an impression of sappiness, in the style of the vintage's better examples. |
