  Solid. Lots of cherry fruit in the nose and palate. Wish there was a more expressive herbal nose... perhaps a function of age. Would love to try it after a few more years.

  Gjennomsiktig mørkerød, lys rand.
  
  Nøytral nese, noe vegetalt i krysningen mot krydder.
  
  Litt bivoks i smaken, middels minus fylde. Lett tørrende og snev av bitterhet i avslutningen. Litt mye syre og ikke så mye frukt igjen. Noe galt med flasken?

  From Brusquières, Pradel and Tresquoys. A blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre and 15% Syrah. Partially destemmed and vinified in cement. Aged for 18 months in foudre (10%), demi-muid (20%), used barrels (20%) and cement (50%), 15% ABV. Warm and glowing but fresh and minerally, roasted chestnuts and roses, amarena cherries, no excess heat or weight, transparent and pure, firm but gentle tannic grip, good resonance and length. Lovely now, will last. At restaurant Sea Palace, Amsterdam, NL.

  Rubinrød med lys rand.
  
  Rund fin krydret frukt med mørke og røde bær. Snev av rått kjøtt.
  
  Middels pluss fylde. Syre backer opp og henger i med tørrrnde tanniner. Fin frukt med modne kirsebær. Litt rått kjøtt.
  
  God til vilt.

  Ruby with floral nose. Red fruits and cherries with earthy notes. Fresh and smooth, medium-full body. Balanced with moderate tannins. Good QPR.
