The perfume here reminds me of a freshly picked bouquet of flowers. Soft, silky, fresh and vibrant, the fruits show a gorgeous sense of purity in the sweet, ripe, kirsch and plums, with lift and chalky tannins in the finish. Long, refined and complex, this is already a joy to taste. But its best days are in the future, if you can hold off from opening a bottle. Drink from 2024-2038.

Inky in color, the wine is deep, rich, lusciously textured and packs ample amounts of silky, opulent, fresh, ripe, red fruits, anise, coffee bean, smoke and cocoa. Long and with great intensity, this is hitting all the right notes. Give it a few years in the cellar and it promises to be even better.
