Fabulous aroma of spicy dark red fruit, inviting without being flirtatious, hints at a serious depth. Plenty of spice. Firm and both dense and elegant, with very fine tannins, just lightly chewy now. Not trying to please but I think it will. (JH)

Bright, dark red. Compelling floral lift to the aromas of strawberry, raspberry, mocha and smoky oak; like the last few grand crus, this is aging in 50% new oak. Musky and powerful on the palate, displaying lovely saline complexity to the raspberry and brown spice flavors. Penetrating and very long on the back end, with the salty character following through. From the same 50-year-old planting and the same grower as the Clos Saint-Denis; both vineyards were also harvested on the same day.
