Score 91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
Deep ruby. Sauvage aromas of black raspberry, coffee grounds, mace, iron and sexy oak. Lush, fat, sweet and concentrated; dark berry, spicy oak and chocolate flavors saturate the palate. Juicy, supple and suave. Finishes ripely tannic and long, with complex notes of redcurrant, fruitcake and smoky oak.
