Purplish red core fading at the edges. Intense nose of earthy, wet, and mushroomy forest floor with a superb smokey smell that follows. Plenty of tart red cherries, cranberries, and tannic pomegranate that finishes with sweet and spicy cinnamon and oak. The palate confirmed the nose showing note for note and adding mouth-watering acidity and silky fine grained tannins making for great structure. Medium body and finish. Very enjoyable

Constat identique à celui dressé il y a deux ans : de la rondeur, du fruit, une belle densité, agréable à boire — supérieur au 2010 il me semble. Bon toucher de bouche, bon vin.

Out of a 375ml bottle, dont now if it was the bottle size or what but on opening I actually thought this was over the hill. Came to life after 3+hours. Not sure about this but would like to try a full bottle size next time.

Drank from 375ml. Decanted for 45 minutes. Nose and palate were completely muted showing hints of sour cherry and cranberry along with some minty earthiness. Really didn't get much from it. I can't tell if it was an off bottle or has closed down for now. Holding my other bottle for now.

This is in a great place right now. Pop and pour was fine.
