Nose of florals and a nice smoke. On the palate it's a bright cherry, raspberry and dusty cassis. One of the best St.-Emilions. Enjoyed this.

Not too terrible at all. Very pleasant, smooth body and finish.

A quick taste from the Coravin yields an amazing floral nose. I believe it's its best quality. Opens with bright red cherries, strawberry and a hint of cassis. Nice acidity and structure. I'm going to enjoy this a few years downstream.
