Finely integrated and luscious, this is the kind of baby Vintage Port an LBV should aspire to be: Dark-fruited, the wine’s juicy wild-blueberry flavors have energy and supple grace. It could find a home with braised game, like boar, and after, with a cheese course. This old vines Santenay is a dark, yet brilliant, black cherry in color. The bouquet evokes rose-petals, peony, violet, red fruits, and a hint of licorice. In the mouth, the attack is deep and intense. Firm, but discreet tannins make for a body that is supple, fine textured and well-built. It boasts back aromas (often of bilberry) and a long finish.
