Bjørnebær, solbær, noe kirsebær, pepper og fat. Trenger litt luft og åpner opp med duft av kjøttfull frukt etter 1-2 timer. Medium syre og taninstruktur med tyngde nok til biffen. Glasset etter mat fungerte, men er fortsatt en matvin.

Medium body, medium acidity, medium/high tannins. On the palate: hints of leather, plums, and black fruits. Medium/long sweet fruity finish. Not great for this price point, and definitely past its peak so should be had soon.

A blend of 55% CS, 40% Merlot and 5% CF. Medium+ garnet red colour, ruby hue. Medium intensity aroma of barnyard, leather, cassis hints, undergrowth, tar. Medium body, lean and fresh black fruit flavours, earthy and chalky nuances, some austerity in mid palate along sandy structured tannins, juicy mid length finish.

Dark ruby and does shows very little age. Lovely nose of dark fruit and wet forest. Blackberry, bright red cherries with surprisingly high acidity. Tannins still rather present and could need a couple years more. Spicy and mineral medium finish. Not bad for a mediocre vintage.

Un peu austère mais prêt à boire.
