A powerful, dense, very rich attack. It combines sensations of volume, structure and richness with a silky texture which never ends. Lively tannins, discernible but ripe and which will become more polished with time. Very, very long and persistent, elegant with magnificent acidity which augurs well for great ageing.

The fruit is present, and also the blue flowers. It reveals many nuances which have yet to blend together. Great wines show what they are made of right from their youth and promise a life lasting decades.
