  A bit better than expected - rich dark fruit and decent acidity carry the day.

  This bottle left me a much better impression than previous
  Black fruits, cherry on palate.
  Long final

  On first sip before food I was a touch disappointed by the absence of opulence but after a mouthful of spring chicken and girolles, it came into balance. Medium+ bodied, it showed quite dark savoury fruit, a touch of earthiness, fresh acidity and a decently long finish supported by firm tannins. It's my guess that it will open up and sing more in a few years. Probably good with game. Good+.

  Très beau nez. Fruits rouges, boisé, anis, expressif. En bouche, c est les tannins qui dominent, ampleur et longueur moyenne, manque un peu de corps. Peut-être une mauvaise phase. Serait curieux de le revoir dans quelques années.

  P&P. Short cedar and raspberry nose. Medium bodied with sufficient light red fruit through the mid palate to arrive at still lingering, tempered tannins. The parts may not be spectacular, but they're all in place sufficiently to make the sum a pleasant experience.
