(WA92-94 points) Although naturally still very much a baby the 2010 Eloge offers significant potential. Juicy dark cherries flowers spices and French oak all emerge from the glass. Today the French oak is a bit dominant but that should be less of an issue over time as the balance of fruit acidity and tannin is superb. Violets menthol and sage are some of the nuances that add complexity to a huge resonant finish. There is plenty of potential here. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2030. -Antonio Galloni
