The 2010 Au Sommet seems to bring together the best of qualities of 2008 and 2009. It has the fruit and depth of the former and the silkiness of the latter. Juicy dark cherries plums smoke incense and tobacco are some of the aromas and flavors that take shape as this powerful intense wine shows off its considerable pedigree. Hints of black olives grilled herbs and licorice add complexity on the finish. This is a gorgeous wine in every way. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2030 Ratings: 95 pts – Wine Advocate
