Vinous
(14% alcohol; from vines more than 100 years old that produced barely 14 hectoliters per hectare in 2014; aged for 12 months in new French oak): Bright ruby-red. Cassis, licorice, mocha, fig and nutty oak on the nose, along with an intriguing resiny element. Silky on entry, then quite backward and unevolved in the middle despite its utterly seamless texture. Red and dark currant flavors are complicated by peppery herbs, leather, minerals and smoky oak. A very complex, savory, elegantly styled wine with no edges. Finishes with firm but suave tannins. This is much more alluring and approachable today than the 2013 was a year ago but really needs time in bottle to deliver on its inherent complexity. Finishes very long, with no shortage of tannic support.Stephen Tanzer1st July 2017
