Beautiful. Integrated wood is there with cinnamon, charred wood and vanilla. The palate has medium tannins and medium acidity, very well balanced and soft. The MLF is very pleasant, but not easily detectable. Fruitiness is in the form of red fruit, raspberry and bramble. But also black cherry. Quite lovely!

Initially the nose is all cassis and spices, then it opens out to show blackcurrants, anise, chocolate, chipotle smoke, eucalyptus and bay, mint,cigar box, and a certain earthy minerality. On the palate , ample acidity and tannin give a great chewy quality, which is perefect with food. A satisfying and well-crafted " cru bourgeois" , with 5 to 8 years life ahead. Give it 1-2 hours decant.

Medium body, deep ruby red color. Elegant black fruits, oak, vanilla and floral aroma. Ripe black currants and dewberry with green notes on the palate, short earthy and mineral finish. Light drinking and charm, velvety texture, complex and balanced but weakly structured, lovely acidity, tangibly tannic. Food friendly, best match is grilled meat or poultry. Serve 18º - 24º. Open at least two hours in advance. Drink now and next couple years.
