  Weekly tasting group RWP #279: 5x a set of 3 wines. (@ RW): Herbal and spicy bouquet with red and dark berries, autumn impressions and some green notes as well. On the palate juicy red and dark berries, oak, bell pepper, good acidity and length. 87 - 88+

  The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry, forest floor and bell pepper.

  Herbs, green grass, round, smooth, rich and fruity, nature wine, unfiltered, hints of manure, warm, soap. Slightly watery feeling, loses power after 2 hours in glass.

  Tout commence bien: joli nez de cabernet franc mûr, sur la cerise, le noyau de cerise et la mousse fraîche, le poivron et une pointe de vanille.
  Les gorgées qui suivent démontrent une belle finesse, avec une matière où les tanins sont fins et encore un rien pointus ( jeunesse oblige), c'est frais, mentholé, ligérien (pierre blanche genre tuffeau).
  Bref, tout se finit bien, nous avons là un bien joli Bourgueil! Tout en finesse et gourmandise! 89/90

  Not much development over the last year. Still fresh and lightweight. Perhaps a bit more mellow and the fruit seems to have taken on some substance.
