Gorgeous. Just the right amount of "animale" that blows off after about 30 minutes. Dusty fine tannins with bright cherry and mineral driven flavored.

Pale colour very typical of the Lafarge style, showing very little aging at the meniscus. The very pleasant nose is floral and spicy mostly. The wine is medium bodied supported by good acidity and a very pleasant tannins texture, good balance , freshness and purity of fruit with a long finish on slightly tart fruit. Love the style and a better bottle then the last one I drank a few years ago in this vintage that I often find disappointing. 93+

Couleur assez pale très typée Lafarge sans grande évolution au ménisque. Le nez est floral, épicé et très agréable. La bouche de corps moyen a beaucoup de fruit très pur, malgré ce millésime qui me laisse parfois perplexe, une fraîcheur, une belle acidité et une droiture avec des tannins veloutés en font un vin bien équilibré qui se termine sur une longue finale savoureuse avec un petit fruit un peu acidulé, vraiment magnifique et meilleur à mon souvenir qu’une autre bouteille dégustée il y a 3 ans environ. 93 pts aisément.
