The oldest vines in the highest of places

making it close to a Vendange Tardive in maturity

The grapes were cut and pressed

Medium to full-bodied in the mouth

A very pure and clean nose with vibrant red fruits and flowers

leaning towards bronze as it ages

The medium-bodied palate features plush tannins and very pure black fruit interlaced with hints of graphite and black pepper

This is the best bottle that I have tasted

with almost chewy tannins but that have a pure cool blue fruit

The persistent chocolaty aftertaste is harmonious and enticing
