Tasting Profile
- Nose: Published commentary highlights freshness, power, elegance and fine detail rather than overt maturity.
- Palate: The style is described as precise and balanced, with intensity suited to long ageing and magnum development.
- Finish: Best approached as a long-lived collector format; the cited article recommends patience, noting Salon often shows best after extended cellaring.
Best For
