Raiding the in-laws cellar - Christmas in France 2008; 12/24/2008-12/29/2008 (Lille, France): A great surprise. Light, elegant, whispy, fading - almost Nebbiolo-like in appearance. No tannins just soft rolling fruit with a very delicate touch. If it was a landscape it would be a gently rolling meadow covered in soft grass. Very good. Drink now before time takes its toll and this wine fades away.

Dried out, some tobacco smoke but no fruit, very drying tannin remains. Charmless. The opposite of pjaines note below.
