This is not the blockbuster of the 2007, but it will reach maturity sooner and is already drinking well. Expressive nose of raspberries, red currants and complex soil tones. I would give it just a few more years in the cellar to let the tannins fully integrate.

Very anxious at first sight because of the colour (garnet). Luckily it was a very good pair of bottles although different between them. A complex bouquet especially the cofee and chocolate at third order but... The very high alchool (16!!!) made things difficult to decide between very good and great. Finally although kept in ideal conditions it was ending life.Mr Chaputier chapeau!
