Description: | 100 De / 100 We / 98 JS / 98 Jd / 98 Vm / 98 Wci / 98 Fs / 97+ Wa / 97 Ja / 96 Ws / 18 Jr. #23 Wine Enthusiast's Top 100 Cellar Selections of 2021. #71 James Suckling's Top 100 Wines of France 2021 This still exudes the freshness and exuberance that the wine had during the primeur stage with its scents of blackcurrant, raspberry, and crushed strawberry along with a delicate floral touch. The new oak is perfectly integrated while imparting a subtle smoky note. The attack is surprisingly creamy, announcing a full-bodied texture wrapped around perfectly polished tannins allied with fine-judged acidity that together provide thrust leading to a finish that is intense yet light-footed and infused with freshness. This is a truly remarkable wine that will surely develop an even more velvety mouthfeel in years to come. Bravo.-Yohan Castaing, Decanter |
