Deep red. Nose of red berries, chalk, talcum powder and occasionally a Brett note that mostly disappeared with sufficient air. Flavors of red berries, chalk, grape, red currants and a green herbal note that makes itself known on the short finish. Good acidity and a light+ body, very easy drinking. At this stage needs a good decant. Smoother/better on day two.

no longer carries the 'de la Giraudiere.' aromas, savory, grapey, rocky/mineral. easy texture on the palate, juicy mouthwatering note, but acid really doesn't draw much attention to itself. lots of charm, with just a touch of pepper on the palate.

Similar to the last bottle, the nose is very expressive red fruit predominant and just a touch of earthiness. Bright acidity and resultant red fruit with a great, subtle spice that picks up weight with some air on the palate.

Great nose, redolent red fruit, green herbs and pommegranite. Bright red cherry on the palate, light body and medium acidity, this is elegant yet expressive wine, with raspberry and an underlying subtle spice component that complements well.
