This is actually quite firmly structured yet the abundant sap masks the tannic spine for today though it will become more prominent once the baby fat begins to melt away

stays perfectly balanced

Lots of tar and asphalt on the nose with dark fruit

-- Neal Martin

which is also tight and tensioned and with great astringency

Laurent Ponsot, Cuvee du Cypres Brut Zero This is actually quite firmly(Cyprus tree). Here the ripe and fresh nose derives more from the darker side of the fruit spectrum while adding nuances of cherry liqueur, warm earth and underbrush. There is very good detail and subtle minerality to the acceptably dense and relatively muscular flavors that deliver fine length on the mildly tangy finale. Very good if not truly distinguished.
