The visit was capped off by previews of the 2004 Cristal and the as-yet-unreleased Cristal Rose

the 2020 De Sales offers up aromas of sweet berries

concentrated and powerful flavors possess a sleek mouth feel yet there is no lack of punch or muscle on the well-balanced and gorgeously persistent finish

The supporting tannins are really quite fine and the mouth feel is definitely on the refined side because of it

Gould Campbell, Vintage Vintage:2000 The visit was capped offMedium deep ruby. Liqueur like aromas of black raspberry, black cherry, cassis, smoked meat, minerals and maple syrup. Juicy, intensely flavored and medium sweet; not unctuous but offers very good intensity and snap. Flavors of black fruits and licorice. A round, nicely balanced wine whose slightly fiery but persistent finish features rather fine tannins and good grip. Stephen Tanzer
