  • What the experts say...

    Quoique un peu monolithique, le 1996 se montre sous un bon jour. D'un rubis-prune soutenu, avec des effluves de terre, de cerise noire, d'herbes séchées et de réglisse, il déploie en bouche des arômes moyennement corsés, musclés et concentrés, et des tannins assez abondants.
