All incipient, this wine is hard to read in its youth. It’s potent and lasting, the concentration given by vines planted in 1953 and 1955 on limestone breaking down into gravel. Sour-cherry notes meet blacker fruit tannins in a finish that hints at allspice, roses and resinous tobacco, all of it captured in a mineral-driven acidity. Cool and tight, this is a wine to revisit in ten years.
