Description: | 96 De / 96 We / 96 Fs / 95 Wci / 95 JS / 94+ WA / 93 Ws / 93 Jd / 93 Vm / 17 Jr The progression of this property continues to be evident in the glass with a beautiful classicism, full of life and layers comprising dark spice and touches of black pepper against blueberry and cool fruits, pumped up by black chocolate and liquorice. It's confident and clearly has a fierce quality to the tannins giving a long life ahead of it. The harvest started on September 17, one week later than Mouton because of its cooler terroir, with the blend completed by 3% Petit Verdot and 1% Carmenère. This is the last vintage with Jean-Emmanuel Donjoy at the helm as he's making his way over to Mouton-Rothschild to work alongside Philippe Dhalluin. A tough gig to turn down of course, but I will miss the work he has done here and look forward to seeing what his successor will add.-Jane Anson, Decanter |
