Grippy tannins frame concentrated black fruit from Petit Maupertuis and below Château de la Tour parcels. Boysenberry and dark cherry show impressive density, though some reduction lingers. Orange peel and warming spices emerge on the weighty palate. Needs five to seven years to reach its potential.
