James Suckling 98-99
Probably one of the most structured and stony SHLs I have
ever had. Full yet very tight and compact palate with
tannins that are like a tightly wound ball of silk. It goes on
for a very long time. The cab berries were very small and
they delivered a fantastic backbone of tannins, but at the
same time intensity of vivid and reserved fruit. This is
really long and classic in structure. The elevage in barrel
will polish the fantastic, pure tannins. 70% cabernet
sauvignon, 23% merlot, 6% cabernet franc and 1% petit
verdot. From biodynamically grown grapes.
