Vintage 2015 | autumn leaves, mushrooms in smell, bouillon but also raspberries. Far matured which seems strange complex wine

Seems like this wanted more time. Mostly closed but decent stuffing.

Without doubt, their best CTP so far. Explosive fruit flavours, dense tannins and vivid acidity, complimented by very clever and integrated oak treatment. Easy another 10 years here.
