12 years since my last note - this has aged beautifully in the cellar. Dark garnet, with moderate bricking at the edges.
Still brambly blackberry, with a touch of blackcurrant and slightly herbaceous. Really great balance of fruit, with excellent acidity. Super fine tannins. Long finish.

Typical nose of brambles, spice and blueberry liquer with a hint of spring flowers. Medium-full bodied thisbis quite rich and thickly textured. Loads of sweet black and blueberries, crushed stones and herbs de Provence. This is still in fine shape with excellent freshness and acidity. Drink now-2027 92

Heady nose with super ripe black cherry and berry, eucalyptus and some garrigue. Full-bodied, this is typical of 2007; loads of amorphous ripeness! It is fully mature and should be consumed with roasted, herbed pork! 87

A bit pruney/raisiny on the nose. Deep ruby color with distinct clear rim. Pretty smooth mid palate but finish is a tad sweet and has a little overripe fruit element. Still an interesting wine but would drink up if u still have in your cellar.

Very full and smooth, well aged. Still has lots of jammy flavours and a beautiful dark maroon colour.
