Score 16/20 · Drink 2009-2012, Jancis Robinson MW, May 2008

From the Seyssuel district. Bright ruby. Very sweet toasty oak dominates the nose. Juicy and easy to like even if fairly evolved already. Decidedly unclassic but friendly. (JR)

Ruby-red. Intensely spicy scents of vibrant raspberry, cherry, cinnamon and clove are underscored by zesty minerality; smells like a suave Burgundy. Fine-grained, silky and sweet, offering sexy red berry flavors, gentle tannins and a whiplash of Asian spices. This boasts terrific energy and clarity, as well as superb finishing cut and persistence.
