Aged 20 months in oak this dark ruby/purple-colored wine displays a distinctive perfume reminiscent of a top-notch Graves. Aromas of scorched earth tobacco leaf black currants and blueberries are accompanied by a striking minerality high tannins and a certain austerity which suggest considerable aging potential for this wine which is concentrated with a certain exuberance and unctuosity but firm structure. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025.
