Fullish garnet. Quite a stewed, evolved nose that settles down after a while to show more of a sous bois character. Relatively light, but a nicely meaty, fairly evolved character with good typicity but underpowered for the vineyard. Drink up on this showing. ***

Perfect cork with no wine coming up the side leads me to believe this is a pristine bottle. Crimson red with bricking at the edge. Crunchy minerals, refreshing acids, and cranberry flavors. An okay wine but lacking the concentration or depth I look for. A touch disappointing and would not rebuy based on value bug an enjoyable wine nonetheless.

rather light with fading fruit, some cinnamon and other wood spice, soft and I even get flashes of charming, but they dont last long. Possibly past its prime.

Deep color with clear rim; some clear quality underneath but the acidity runs a shade too shrill for me, making the fruit a bit sour. Others liked this far more than I did.

Audouzed 2hrs, double decanted for (very light) sediment, 1 glass poured & allowed to sit for one further hour. With roast chicken. Translucent mid colour, savoury cherry on the nose. Similar in the mouth, with a little iron and illusive tannin. Refreshing acidity framing the body, on the lighter side of medium. Beautifully balanced and fragrant, a wine to savour. Sal 95pts(!)
