A bit reduced initially, then nose shows up with ripe black fruits, blackcurrants and black berries, some tar notes also. Needs 1h aeration. Rich nose announcying a smooth and ripe palate, on the same notes of ripe black fruits. Tannins are bien fondus. Nice Syrah from North Rhone, on a rich side.

a bit too funky...a bit unblanced, volatily and funky...behind ripe fruit.
