2015 noir - 92 pts from Vinous
Bright violet color. Powerful blackberry, incense and exotic spice aromas, along with violet, olive and smoky mineral accents. Broad and seamless on the palate, offering sweet cassis, blueberry and vanilla flavors that tighten up steadily on the back half. Plays richness off finesse smoothly and finishes impressively long and juicy, showing harmonious tannins and lingering smokiness.
