Smells like sunshine. Big ripe and macerated cherries. Earth and mineral. Smells vast like 15 can be. Palate is super ripe but balanced, fresh and pure. Stoney like tannins and great concentration. This is a very serious wine. Great freshness, balance and length. Very structured and has years to go. I’d wait 3 years for next bottle.

What a huge 2015 success. Lovely nose of big cherry, cassis, crushed stones and so much intense minerality. Floral as well with lavender and mashed violets. Intense and gorgeous. Palate is just a fruit bomb. Amazingly concentrated yet elegant as well with huge rich cherry fruit that is so sweet and gorgeously defined. Wonderful acidity and freshness. Best showing yet.

This was around the time of the switchover from pierrick s pare at ti 100% pierrick.

You can taste the stunning fruit. Good refinement but not at the elite levels of 100% pierrick.

It’s around peak so drink up if you have it.
