Still surprisingly young with blackberries, cured meat, pepper and some floral notes, though some development showing. Would think this still has at least 5 years in it.

Let this breathe in bottle for 2 hrs and after a brief initial taste decanted where we nipped at it for another 3 hrs. The nose initially had some barnyard like smells but not overwhelming. There were bubbles in decanter and glass that did not go away but the wine was not at all carbonated tasting. It seems very young atm.

Beautiful Côte-Route full of floral, pepper, roasted meat and soy notes on the nose. Dark fruits and spice, with a herbaceous hint at the end on the palate. Still young after only 9 years with a rich but elegant palate that still maintains an exciting wild/sauvage edge.

A beauty, this starts off with aromas of flowers and animals. Elegance and complexity here, lovely dark red fruit, olives, herbs. Structure and balance perfect. Love this wine.
