Red

Even darker than 2010, and more youthful looking. Blackish crimson. Amazing opulence and richness. So sweet and yet with classic build and tension. Richness and tension. Long. Already enjoyable even if so youthful.

Philippe Dhalluin: ‘The best vintage I made in my life – I prefer subtlety to muscle. Closest to 1945. Barbie to 2010’s Ken.’ 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot. Last vintage made in the old cuverie.
