Note: Guide Hachette 3*** (Exceptional wine)
"A highly expressive 2010. Fresh fruit mingled with floral and spicy nuances compose a complex and intense bouquet where the woodiness remains discreet, a sign of perfectly controlled aging. On the palate, the attack is frank and lively. The freshness of the fruit and the woodiness, which is never excessive, are perfectly balanced, titillated by peppery notes and carried by a solid and very elegant structure. The label does not lie; this wine has all the makings of a great." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2013)
