Absolutely stunning rustic wine. Required to be opened a day ahead. Elegant, vibrant. Amazing nose leather, tobacco , red fruits. The nose of the year !!!. Mid - body. Relatively high acidity. A lot of red fruits. Remind VE Syrah in PN tuxedo. Endless aging potential. Great wine. 92

What an interesting wine; quite unique...a cross between a Burgundy and light Dolcetto. Also interesting is the low alcohol level at 11.5%. Nose offers cherries, wild raspberries, brown sugar, fines herbs. Somewhat lean and tart, light but succulent...cola, soft tannins, discreet ripe fruit flavours with some spices. A sour cherry long finish. Is it ready? Some critics say to hold because the baga grape needs time. Nice with a vegetarian paella with shrimp. Next bottle...after 2025? 88-

Robe grenat, translucide de bonne intensité. Un nez sale et unique de vieilles fraises, de canneberges et de fourrure au profil sanguin et terreux. Bouche au fruit ample bâtie sur la longueur, bien droite et en souplesse mais avec du sérieux, au profil sauvage jamais déviant. Bonne intensité de saveurs qui persistent dans une finale modérément tannique et légèrement salée. J'ai beaucoup apprécié son caractère singulier, il m'est apparu d'ailleurs moins sombre et plus sauvage que sur le millésime 2012. 90-91

Carbonated. Like wine cola.
