Pretty if restrained aromas are comprised by notes of red and dark currant, newly turned earth, orange peel and a vague floral wisp. There is excellent detail and vibrancy to the delicious if not especially dense flavors that also possess a sophisticated texture, all wrapped in a youthfully austere, focused and powerful finale. This is quite firm and a wine that should easily be capable of reward 12 to 15 years of keeping.
Silky and refined Grand Cras comes from a small parcel at the foot of Côtes du Py and is yet another eloquent testament to Mee’s great talent. This wine has a rich aroma of blackberries, plums and blackcurrants which resounds gracefully in the flavour, where you’ll also discover that characteristic herbal or spicy bite.
