Day1: Superb rocky mineral and cleanness. There is a moment in mouth when anything except mineral weight is muted and the taste becomes so transparent and saline. Nice delicate acidity, then comes high toned layered fresh bouquet: chinese hawtorn, dark cherry, ripe apricot, clanberry, dill, etc. Finishes with liquor-like lingering scent. Beautiful format!
Day 3: fruits got deeper and nuances of lightly baked coffee (etiopean?) emerged. Will age gracefully.

Seems like a cool-climate wine! Very juicy and mineral, refreshing, cru-beaujolais-like.

Sweet red fruit with refreshing acidity. Not your typical Languedoc red and all the better for it.
