Clean and fresh, bursting with fruit and spices. Full-bodied, it delivers some game, truffle, vanilla notes. Needs time. Drink now through 2020. Wine Spectator 90/100;

Only shows hints of its full range, with licorice, incense, graphite and mocha flavors fluttering in the background. Has an iron-clad structure, with a long finish. Best from 2009 through 2025. Wine Spectator 96/100;

Rhone, France 2 Magnums (1500 ml)
