Way better than my previous encounter.
It’s not going to make old bones so pop corks sooner than later.

Stewed dark fruit, cinnamon, clove, wet forest floor, leather, tobacco. Fantastic and complex with medium acidity smooth tannins and a med+ finish. Quite lovely.

Wet earth notes. Decent acidity. Black peppery with a hint of under ripened cherry.

Hard not to like but this is a less expensive one and the one that I like that's only $4 or 5 more is s lot better (Domaine Jean Deydier). The 2009 is a lot more candied raspberries w spice and this had a bit of over ripe cherry.
