Dark aroma, fresh and deep. Full, svelte, and muscular. It is powerful and deep. Crushed velvet tannins. But there is austerity here, too. The persistent finish is both sleek and chalky. Christophe acquired another parcel on the white soil in 2016, increasing it to 65% of the blend, and the profile of this wine has changed to have more reserve and tension. Serious stuff. 2030–40. 98–99
