With subtle herbal notes on the nose, this gently fragrant, and then in the mouth it is rounded and generous with very fine tannins. The alcohol is quite warming but the fruit is very attractive. Little touch of reduction still, but it adds a fresh dimension. Really not about power or concentration this year, it's an elegant vintage of this cuvée. Good volumes in 2023; quite a hot year, but the size of the harvest helped to temper its power. 'Between a fresh and a solar year,' says Thierry Sabon.
