| If you simply must open this wine now, decant it for an hour or two and pair with rare roast beef or charcuterie and cheeses. TASTING NOTE: A firm and structured cru wine from 100-year-old vines that has layers of firm fruits and tannins. It is a wine that is likely to mature well, with its wood aging and dry core. A blend from four parcels, it is concentrated and with a rich black-cherry character. Drink this exceptional wine, from old-vine hunter Stéphane Aviron, starting in 2020. Cellar Selection.
