  Moins bon que les autres, les arômes animales commencent à prendre le dessus...sur sa pente descendante c'est certain.
  Nez sur le cuir et la terre avec un brin de fruit rouge.
  En bouche, très animales avec le cuir qui revient. Un peu d'épices et de fruits en arrière plan. Finale courte.
  A boire il y a quelques mois, passé sa prime.

  Very lively nose after pouring, strong ripe red fruit. After a few minutes the bulk of the flavour dissipated. Very quick oxidation? Almost like it was reduced and the unwelcome smells disappear, except it is more those that 'were' welcome disappeared. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt that this is more an issue with the conservation of the bottle than the wine itself, or perhaps simply end of life. The other notes seem to indicate the issue was our bottle.

  6/3/2016 - Beerzebub Likes this wine:

  P&p. Aromas of fresh boysenberryish fruit, black tea, and light clean earth. With an hour+ of air in the bottle, flowers, cedar/spice, and a cool herbaceous streak somewhere between anise and basil develop. Similar flavors, with good acidity and noticeable but smooth tannins. Earth and berry seeds toward the finish, slightly bitter. Characterful, tasty, refreshing and highly drinkable, and a good value.

  Encore une fois très bon, ample et digeste.
  Le nez est apparue plus animal, cuir et terre avec des framboise et de la viande.
  En bouche, du poivre et de la menthe avec des framboises, belle densité et des tannins polis sur une finale longue.
  Un des top RQP en rouge en ce moment pour moi!
