Gorgeous nose, so smoky and enticing, with damson, blackberry and sloe fruits. Full-bodied, voluptuous and generous, with high alcohol – very much in the 2010s Mordorée vein of ripeness and potency. It has elegance and depth, and there's still a sense of freshness at its heart, plus a long finish. A good time to drink this if you have any, the tannins are melting away, but it still has the structure it needs to help mask the generous alcohol, and stand up to some hearty food. 1,500 bottles made. 40-year-old vines grown on galets roulés, fermented and aged in barriques.
