Description

Robert Parker 91+ Drink: 2013 - 2033
This exceptional wine is presently as impressive as the 2010, but obviously it is much more drinkable. Made from yields of 32 hectoliters per hectare with 14% natural alcohol, this blend of 70% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon reveals some spicy new oak along with lots of vanillin, underbrush, black currants and black cherry jam. Dense ruby/purple-colored and full-bodied with moderate tannin, it is more supple and forward than the 2010. Nevertheless, this big 2008 needs 2-3 years of cellaring and should keep for 15-20 years.


and some recent Cellartracker notes:

23/3/2013 - docvino wrote: 92 Points
Opened and decanted about an hour before serving to my guests. First taste before decanting revealed a nice inviting nose with quite a bit of astringency. Dark Purple colour. After decanting the astringency really calmed down. Smooth velvety Integrated tannins. Medium finish. I get mostly cocoa, leather, dark fruits and a bit of minerals. Very good wine that is drinking well now. With a bit of bottle age, it could move up a point of two.

Relatively tight nose but lovely mouthfeel with soft tannins. Great finish, well balanced, good fruit, good wine.

Coffee bean, cassis, blackberry and vanilla scents make up the perfume. Soft and round in texture, there is a lightly dusty sensation to the tannins. The wine ends with mineral, chocolate and black cherries.
