A cool, spicy and distinctly floral nose possesses a mix of ripe red and somber dark berry fruit aromas. The robust, intense and impressively rich flavors display excellent size and weight as well as a seductively textured mouthfeel. Like the Grands Ech this is also very firm but there is plenty of tannin-buffering extract that coats the palate on the driving and markedly persistent finish. This mineral-driven effort should be very good to perhaps even excellent if given sufficient time that it will very much need.
