A refined and very pure bouquet of cherries, blood orange, cocoa powder, a touch of nutskin, a profoundly complex base of soil, cloves and a deft framing of cedar. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and brilliantly complex, with excellent mid-palate depth, ripe tannins and superb focus and grip on the very, very long, elegant and dancing finish.

"Bright medium red. Spicy, youthfully imploded nose hints at raspberry, rose petal and gingerbread; classic Clos Saint-Denis. Juicy, spicy and intense in the mouth, with terrific tension and cut to the flavors of sweet red berries and minerals."
