powerful and delicate at the same time. Typical Denis mortet wine. Wait for at least 5 years.

Plenty of red fruit, great salinity, long finish. On the light side.

Very good. Complex. Dark fruit classic. Hint dark cherries, orange peel, spices. But 225$. Worth the money? Not really.

Beautiful nose, strawberry, sour cherry slightly tannins, vanilla, clove, nutmeg, a lot of spice, hint of smoke, cool vintage but still had some lushness to the fruit, just barely starting to show some mushroom truffle notes. Vintage shows in the acidity but still nicely balanced. Only thing is intensity fades in back end. Found this wine for $210 on a restaurant list, what amazing value.

Rubis très foncé peu d'évolution
Nez tres puissant et expressif fruit rouge epice jus de viande et note florale et d orange sanguine
Attaque généreuse presque crémeuse milieu enorme bouche très large et ultra généreuse
Finale longue sur la fraise écrasée épicé sauce soja et orange
Un peu solaire par l effet millesime très généreux mais somptueux

I really like this wine. Lsj is one of my favorite sites. Mortet just KILLS it. I really need to fire up my hot tub time machine and set that sucker to 2023
