Aromatically ripe, floral and spicy with hints of the classic La T'che nose but there are also hints of under ripe fruit. The flavors coat the mouth and they are still quite firm and youthful but the back end displays more than a trace of astringency and a healthy dose of austerity. Perfectly good for the vintage but not exceptional. Consistent notes.
