Meunier informed me that vintage in and vintage out, this parcel always produces 38 hectoliters/hectare. It offers an extremely appealing nose of violets and blackberries drenched in mocha that gives way to a ripe, dense, feminine, medium-to-full-bodied, and refined character filled with sweet blueberries and raspberries. It also possesses a thick texture, excellent concentration, and lovely soft tannins. Anticipated maturity: now-2004.
