The greatness of Bordeaux’s 2016 vintage shows itself here with a particularly admirable depth and richness. The wine is very deep in colour, with all the elegance of formal evening wear; if the bouquet is still somewhat reserved, the first impression in the mouth is lively with an immediately noticeable density. Flavors of tobacco, blackberry, cherry, plum and a touch of wood dominate the palate, borne along by an opulent structure. The sensation is soft and compact, leaving an impression of great subtlety. This wine has a great future before it, and will become more open with time. A little patience will offer the time to prepare a fine feast to accompany it. A beautiful wine for the future.
