In magnum form, this wine is given extra time and tranquility to unfold its full complexity. The 2022 vintage 2022 was warm and dry, but the old vines and deep roots on the gravelly soils provided balance and freshness. The wine displays intensity without heaviness. Everything feels controlled and precise, despite the richness of the vintage. The result is a wine that combines power with refinement and tension. Color, smell and taste Deep, dark ruby red with an almost inky core. The nose reveals ripe red and dark fruit with notes of blood orange, new leather, and exotic spices. The palate is full and explosive, yet without harsh edges. The structure is seamless, with a perfect balance of ripe fruit, fresh acidity, and velvety tannins. The finish is long, resonant, and exceptionally refined. Structure and storage potential This 2022 boasts both immediate appeal and enormous depth for extended aging. Its balance and precision are already impressive, but its true complexity will unfold over decades. In magnum, its development will be even more even, with aging potential well beyond 2050.
