Sour blackberries, milk chocolate, meaty with some blood and iron notes, very fruity, soft tannins and silky texture, very fresh with vibrating but ripe acidity, the oak is very well-absorbed. A well-balanced modern and fruit-forward wine, just lacks a bit of structure and length to me, but nevertheless an excellent wine for a reasonable price (17 Euros). Ready for drinking. - 89 points

A significant step up from Beaujolais we had been drinking. Elegant looking in the glass, slight brown on the edges. I picked up dried dark fruit on the nose. Taste was long and enjoyable. Conclusion whilst we really enjoyed the wine, in terms of value £25 was a bit steep, maybe a £15-£20 wine
