Score 91-93/100 · Drink 2003-2010, Pierre Rovani, Aug 1998
Produced from a parcel located behind the vineyard's famous chateau, this wine is medium-to-dark ruby-colored and reveals, spicy, rich, and candied red fruit aromas. This dense, powerful, thickly-textured, and full-bodied wine is crammed with chocolate-covered black cherries, blackberries, cassis, fresh herbs, and notes of earth. It is concentrated, backward, dense, mouth-filling, and possesses an extremely long and supple tannin packed finish. Projected maturity: 2003-2010. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083.
