Ripe raspberries and cherries in the bouquet. On the palate red berries, garrigue, a firm amount of acidity, some oak and a touch of sweetness. Tasting it blind I never guessed this was a 2000. Mature alright, but still fresh fruits. Really nice!

Good in the first two hours. It shown pretty good aroma. Light-medium body and acceptable length of finishing. Blackcurrant, a bit smoky and spicy, meaty, and chocolate. After two hours, it starts become a bit too oaky and savoury.
Light-mid brick, amber edges; similar to last tasting on the nose (flowery, wood, leather, old world); mid-body to soft; gained some elegance with time. w/cassoulet.

The wine looks crimson colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry jam and forest floor. It tastes like strawberry jam, forest floor, coffee and chocolate. The body is medium/full. The wine has round texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.
