A pungent, smoky bouquet displays rich dark berry preserves along with notes of licorice, violet, cured meat and black pepper. Brighter red fruits on the palate, which is surprisingly energetic for such richness. Tangy cracked pepper and mace notes build with air and carry into the finish. Leaves sweet red and dark berry notes behind on the very long, sappy and sweet finish. This energetic wine is already delicious.

It's not approachable right off like the 2006, which was great almost right out of the bottle (albeit run through the Vinturi), and its going to be a while before we find out if it will ever achieve the level of the 2004, but this wine, once out of the bottle for a while, cooled off & set up beautifully. No doubt, this is young Clio, way before its time, but perhaps will be one of the longest lived.
