Vinous 92+ Good deep red with ruby tones. Ripe, deep perfume of black cherry, dark berries, crushed rock, wild herbs and game lifted by a peppery topnote. Very concentrated, intense, taut wine with terrific volume and inner-mouth energy. A captivating floral quality contributes another dimension. Explosive on the back end, saturating the mouth and exciting the salivary glands. Finishes with terrific late spicy lift. This wonderfully perfumed, classy wine needs time. "Consumers will probably prefer the 2014 but the '13 is longer and has more finesse," said Sylvie Esmonin, adding that the 2014 "doesn't have the same shoulders." (Drink between 2023-2035)
