Allen Meadows
A monopole of the Domaine with vines that were planted in 1922. This is a bit more elegant still with a very ripe and densely fruited nose where the earth component takes center stage and continues as a significant component of the concentrated and ultra-serious, even strict flavors that possess very ripe and prominent tannins. This is borderline chewy but the balance is excellent as is the length. A robust and rustic but impressive villages that will require up to a decade of cellar time to shed its considerable structure. 2018+. 89-92 points

This is always under 30hl/ha and this year it was 20hl/ha or less. Pierre had just 14 barrels this year, rather than the usual 20. The vines are very old, planted in 1922 and the problems of low yields were accentuated in 2010. He made a selection of the stems, 20% went back. “In 2011 it is different, we have a part of whole bunches. The piegage is difficult, but just the first one.” Dark and concentrated aroma. Dark forest and blackberry fruit. Plenty of richness on the front of the palate. Good density to the middle. It is very juicy. Supple, ripe tannins. Luscious supple texture. Distinct note of dark spice. It has a touch of dark mineral with freshness and spice on the finish. It has plenty of substance. Very good indeed. Pierre likes the stems to give the lift and the spice and to counter the richness of the fruit, which in 2010 he finds very, concentrated. From 2016. Very good indeed. 16.75 points
