Note di degustazione
Good medium-deep red. Superripe, slightly high-toned nose shows less verve than a barrel sample I tried a year ago. Big and rich in the mouth, with a hint of menthol coolness to go along with the very ripe impression. Totally different from the same cuvee from the 2010 vintage: distinctly less tactile and clinging. Will this gain in complexity with bottle aging? Finishes with substantial tongue-dusting tannins. From a well-drained, warm vineyard.

Good full red. Precise, complex aromas of redcurrant, spices, lavender, violet and warm stones, with an exotic grapefruit note. Sweet, pliant and velvety but with lovely lift and energy thanks to strong underlying stony minerality. Suave on the front half, then gripping on the back, finishing with a saline quality that titillates the taste buds. With its eroded sand from higher on the hillside and its underlying calcaire, which holds the sun's heat and drains well, this vineyard ordinarily outperforms in cooler years, but this 2009 looks to be very successful too.
