Opaque at the core with small purple rim. Not simple at all, the bouquet shows deeply concentrated aromas of sweet earth and infused fruits, along with cocoa powder and vanilla. Balanced and restrained on the palate, the fruit shows ripeness, but avoids overly jammy or viscous texture thanks to well-integrated acidity. Finishes long and elegant, with spice and minerals infusing the fruit weight at the back palate. This wine has generated considerable controversy because of its alcohol levels. And while there is certainly some ripe fruit to be found here, this is not a flabby fruit bomb. Rather, the wine clearly shows its specific terroir, highlighting a taut, linear profile along with a distinct graphite mineral component that is unique to the Chateau.
