Already delicious though its hint of austerity promises years ahead of positive development. Amazingly light on its feet for a wine of this authority. Cherry/kirsch, licorice, raspberry, and a lovely floral edge highlight the aromas and flavors. Perfect acid/tannin balance, great length and depth despite the elegant mouth feel. Lots of power hidden behind the facade here. Really outstanding Châteauneuf. - HK 2019-10-26
