Note di degustazione
(two of the three barrels were new): Bright medium red. Tighter on the nose than the Perrières, showing more spices than fruit in the early going, along with complicating licorice and mineral nuances. Not a thick wine but juicy and intense, showing very good cut for the year. More concentrated than the Perrières. Finishes with serious length and floral lift, the tannins quite firm but not dry. Forey said he would wait seven or eight years to start drinking this wine.

(80% new oak): Bright red-ruby. Explosive nose combines black raspberry, black cherry and dark chocolate. Plush, sweet and voluminous if in a slightly exotic style, with mouthfilling flavors of kirsch , chocolate mint and licorice leavened by fresh peppery lift. Finishes with substantial dusty, palate-coating tannins and a strong lingering chocolate flavor. A very complete wine in the context of this collection. In a distinctly higher-pH style than the Petits Monts but still a reasonable 3.48, according to Forey's lab results.
(from a tiny .1 ha parcel of vines planted in 1933). Generous wood presently dominates the ripe mix of earthy dark fruit and underbrush aromas. There is ample dry extract on the robust, muscular and intense flavors that display a distinct gaminess on the textured and solidly long and dusty finish that is supported by ripe tannins. This will require at least a decade to come together and eat its prominent oak. ( Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
