Reviews
"The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The first nose is a little reduced and expresses notes of
roasted meat and leather. After aeration, it expresses notes of roasted fruit (roasted red cherry, roasted
red plum), crushed strawberry, prunes and chocolate morello cherry, combined with notes of dried bay
leaf, licorice, dried peppermint, nutmeg, white pepper, violet and peony. On the palate, the wine is
concentrated, juicy and robust. It expresses notes of fresh morello cherry, wild strawberry, dark plum in
chocolate, dried blackcurrant, red chocolate cherry, as well as dry bay leaf, mint chocolate, a hint of
coffee, white pepper, sweet tobacco, fresh violet, fresh peony and a slight touch of leather in the
background. The tannins are firm, but have a fine grain, the acidity is lively and salivating, which allows
the tannin structure to be enveloped. The finish is gourmand, sapid, very fruity and chocolatey. A
concentrated, full-bodied wine, but fresh and airy." [+]
