$280
From vines average age over 40 years old. Half of the holding of the estate has been re-planted in recent years so quantities of this wine are reduced recently.
A pungent nose of smoky reduction and wood toast is all that can be discerned at present. Otherwise, the rich, powerful and concentrated broad-shouldered flavors also possess plenty of sappy dry extract before concluding in a lemony, dry and moderately austere finale. This is a big and firmly structured wine that also needs to develop better depth. (90-93)/2031+ Burghound.com, October 2024.
