| Almost black in colour, incredibly rich in the middle. From the nose, you feel like you're in Napa Valley. But at the highest level. The bouquet delivers blueberries, cassis, blackcurrant with a hint of mint and the slightest hint of eucalyptus. The palate is fleshy, compact, acidity, tannins and body are at the best possible limits. And this limit means that it will need a lot of time before it is ready to be enjoyed for the first time. At the same time, it must also level out its harmony at this murderous level. For readers aged 60+ (like me), buying this very demanding Pape giant unfortunately makes little sense. It's a baroque, tied-up monster package for the day after tomorrow! | |
Parker: 100/100
