This is also ripe but cool with its blend that also has a liqueur-like quality to it on the black pinot, earth, sauvage and forest floor-scented nose. There is a bit more size and weight to the rich and palate coating medium-bodied flavors that flash an almost pungent minerality to the balanced, firm and serious finale. Despite being quite firmly structured, this too could be reasonably approached after only 5-ish years of keeping.
