For me, this was the top wine of an extraordinary, singular evening drinking the wines of Henri Jayer’s personal cellar. If possible, this wine showed the most intensely concentrated dark plum and black cherry fruit imaginable, highlighted with liquorice, ginger, and exotic spice. The fruit was still very primary, yet there was a full complement of earthy, gamey secondary notes. The texture impressed with its power and lingering finish, but there was still an almost haunting, ethereal side, and the finesse on the finish was astonishing. Impossible to have enough of this wine! Still very youthful, it can age for decades to come.
