Really good. Seemed some bottle variation. Second one was very much lusher with more in the way of black fruits. Ripe, but balanced, red fruits too. Good length. I'm going to try to keep my hands off the rest for a couple of years.

Bright ruby. A surprise. Bright redcurrant, cherry fruits, only trace of blackberry. Fine tannins, quite softened. Good acidity, very clean. Ready to drink for sure but no panic at all. Very well judged wine.

Spicy Grenache flavors, funky earthy notes, licorice, black cherries and sweet red berry liqueur. Offers a lot of flavor. Silky tannins, quite sweet and heady, but balanced by good acidity. The high alcohol is obvious, but didn't bother me too much. Drinking well now, I don't really see much ageing potential here. - 89 points

Bouquet: Mossyness, mild liver, forest floor, lack of astringency, ripe red fruits. Palate: Black cherry, lavendar, honey, hearty earth overtones. GREAT WITH DUCK!

Le vin n'est pas prêt à boire.
Il est extrêment puissant et ses 15° d'alcool fatiguent le palais.
A attendre encore 10 ans.
