Tasting Notes

A powerhouse, with a racy structure delineating the cherry, bilberry, mineral and spice flavors. Builds to a long, intense, stone- and spice-filled finish, while retaining equilibrium and finesse. A well-bred youngster, with plenty to give. Best from 2022 through 2040.

Score: 95

Dark, bright red. Alluring floral lift to the aromas of raspberry, blood orange and minerals complemented by sweet oak. Densely packed and saline but with pungent red berry flavors giving the wine a light touch. Like some of Olivier Bernstein's other 2014s, this delivers captivating inner-mouth perfume, but there's also a plushness and seamlessness of texture here. Finishes with terrific aromatic persistence and no rough edges. This wine is deceptively accessible today, but it would be a shame not to give it at least a few more years in the cellar.

Score: 93
