Antonio Galloni - 93+ Points

"Good medium red. Darker today in its fruit character than the Cazetiers, offering brooding scents of musky dark berries, licorice and game. Boasts lovely sweetness on entry, then shuts down tight in the mid-palate, with black raspberry and flinty mineral flavors leading to a firmly tannic, youthfully drying finish. Comes across as quite backward after the premier crus here. Seriously tannic and clenched, with its firm spine calling for patience."
