The palate is medium-bodied with supple red and black fruit laced with white pepper and just a touch of dried blood

There is ample structure here as well though it’s largely buffered by all of the mid-palate extract and I particularly like the depth

it’s that there is limited depth though there is enough material that it may develop with a few years of bottle age

it's intellectual

Christian Moueix, Ulysses other_regions The palate is medium-bodied withOakville fruit but Napa Valley on the label. Fresh picked berries and bramble on the nose become focused and spiced on the palate. Nice herbal and earth notes with rocky minerality across the full length of the palate. The open fruit expression of the nose creates the expectation of a bigger wine to follow but it is classical with good restraint and an impressive sense of precision in the mouth. Beautifully done.
