Deep floral nose smothered in caramelized honey, garrigue tapenade, still dark plum, long finish. She's my cherry pie...

Surprisingly advanced color. Medium weight and concentration. Nicely elegant and improved with time in the glass, but this didn't have the impact I was expecting. Hard to envision much improvement from here so drink up...

2004. Nicely balance. Wonderful finesse-y elements.

Wine drank like the lighting. Soft mellow and approachable. Just a pleasant 17yo CNDP. Herbaceous and dried red fruits

Nice wine, probably has a few good years left.

A bit too raisin-y at first but after a couple hours of decanting quite nice. Deep and mouth filling with a ton of ripe fruit and good acid and tannins to round it out.
