Tasting notes :
A dense, dark colour, typical of great Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose reveals complex aromas of ripe black fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry), underlined by notes of graphite, cedar, sweet spices and a subtle floral touch. On the palate, the attack is full and precise, carried by a firm but silky tannic structure. The finish is long, fresh and persistent, reflecting great ageing potential.

Food & wine pairings:
This great Pauillac is ideal with grilled prime rib, roast game or gourmet dishes in sauce. It will also enhance a platter of mature cheeses.
Cellaring potential:
Already superb today after decanting, it could also evolve for another 20 to 25 years in the cellar, developing even more complex and refined tertiary aromas.
