In 2015, a glorious, spicy, cassis nose, the true expression of Mouton. Terrific blackberry juiciness and mocha glossiness. Seamless beauty and a 'meaty', chocolatey taste. Coffee bean finish, with such a 'lift' at the end due to the bouncy acidity of the year. This is all pent-up splendour and so textured one could almost eat it. Huge potential.
