Helles rubinrot, 1-2 mm Wasserrand; dezent bis mittleres Bouquet mit Mischung aus erdigen, fleischigen und fruchtigen Nuancen. Etwas Himbeere, Erdbeere, Erde, vegetabile Noten. Am Gaumen beugt sich die anfangs noch schmeckbare Frucht dann zusehends einem leider etwas zehrendem Tannin; mäßiger Abgang. Für den Jahrgang ein leichter und recht gefälliger Wein. Austrinken!

The nose is evolved and quite dry, undergrowth, tea and linen, minerals and spices, hint of fruit (rosehip); very dry on the palate, green tannins, light-weight, ethereal (typical for Vignes Franches); abrupt and dry finish. Not very good and not going anywhere.

Full flavoured, mature with a slight vegetal element (marmite); still vigorous with good acidity; this has turned out well for a modest wine from a modest vintage.

The fruit is now starting to fade a little, but this is still fairly lively with mature, mushroomy flavours. Drink up.
