Blackcurrant and dried rose show beautiful evolution, with hints of worn leather adding complexity. The palate delivers focused fruit weight through the center, finishing with mineral-driven spice. Tannins have integrated nicely while preserving the wine's backbone. Young vine energy rather than profound depth, yet captures the magic of this exceptional Loire vintage.
