2017 Vintage- Bright, medium-dark ruby-red. A very perfumed and precise nose of red berry fruit, iron, and tobacco. On the palate, cool red cherry and raspberry fruit mingle with notes of bramble and anise. Perfectly balanced with suave tannins in the long, long finish. Less dark and powerful than the 2016 but no less striking, displaying incredible grace, harmony, and purity. Enjoy 2019 through 2027.
