各國美酒

Allen Meadows: All that I could think when I first put my nose inthe glass was "wow!" as the airy and very cool nose ofultra-elegant spice, floral and herbal nuances greeted me. Add tothis plenty of attractive nuances to the kaleidoscopically layeredred currant and plum suffused aromas and you have something prettyspecial. This is, not surprisingly, much more refined than theGrands Ech as the supporting tannins on the silky middle weightflavors are extremely fine-grained yet notably dense as theexplosive finish is quite firm. Despite the tightly wound structurethe overall impression of the mouth feel is one of delicacy andultimate refinement. This should be a particularly excellentvintage for what has become one of the stars of this gorgeouslydeep portfolio of wines.
