Vinous
(this was the last 2010 to be bottled here, in July of 2012): Good bright red. Very fresh aromas of cherry, rose petal, menthol and spicy oak. Juicy on entry, then powerfully structured in the middle, with menthol, mineral and spice flavors showing buns of steel. Little in the way of easy sweetness here. Finishes with a powerful spine of chewy, building tannins and an element of fresh herbs. According to winemaker Gublin, this wine has been getting more floral in recent vintages, as the presence of grass between the rows now absorbs excess water. Austere today but I would expect this to merit a higher score with ten years of aging.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2013
