Sweet blackcurrants, orange rind, violets, plums, cherry cream and some liquorice. Round and filling, this is dense and intense with prominent tannins, a juicy core and lots of structure. It's forward and really intense with fine, mineral-edged tannins. Sophisticated and really generous, ample and persistent with such a fleshy mouthfeel. Zero wood. This is just brilliant - fresh, lively, zingy and ample. Lovely finesse too. There's acidity for sure, but there's creaminess to counter it. A marvelous Mouton. Ageing 100% new barrels, 18 months. 3.71pH. Drinking window: 2032-2050. (Georgina Hindle,decanter.com) Sweet blackcurrants, orange rind, violets, plums, cherry cream and some liquorice.
