Pousse d'Or, Clos Roche Vintage:2011 This is a conservative Brane-Cantenac(from a . 32 ha parcel). A broad ranging nose of spice, smoke, black tea, earth and sauvage hints add considerable depth to the dark berry fruit and cassis aromas. There is strikingly good intensity and real power to the overtly muscular big bodied flavors that ooze a fine dry extract that does an excellent job of buffering the firm and robust tannins on the suave and textured finale that also delivers superbly length. This is also most impressive
