Staggering nose of red fruit with fascinating mineral and meaty undertones. Gigantic concentration on the medium- to full-bodied palate, the power tightly reined in, but nonetheless driving the extremely long and precise finish that has great stony expression. A cuvee of wines from the granitic Les Bressards section of the hill of Hermitage and lower lying vineyards with more clay in the soil. 100% whole cluster fermentation, then bottled unfiltered and unfined.
