  Le vin est violacé. Nez de fruits noirs et rouges, d'épices, un brin fumé et chocolaté, boisé peu perceptible. En bouche le vin offre de la mâche, un fruit éclatant (mûres, framboise), un peu de torréfaction / chocolat amer, le poivre y est, bien balancé avec juste ce qu'il faut d'acidité et de longueur. Très bien.

  Youthful purple. Open bouquet; the typical raspberry and burnt rubber duo performance act. There's a deeper, perfumed blueberry note underneath, as well as a touch of oak. On the palate the wine is full bodied, viscous, rather bold fruit, but restrained tannins. Finishes a bit hot with some tangy acidity as well, not the most gracious of finishes, but ok. Could do with another year or two in a dark cold place. Good value nonetheless.
