last bottle of this vintage: and we were lucky......., a real perfect bottle topping the christmas- bottle, basket full of spices in the nose, had the spontaneous suggestion of standing in a hall full of spices......, fullbodied, some acidity but well integrated, earthy, black fruits but again this incredible intense basket full of spices on the palate, long+ finish and finally.......perfect with couscous and lamb,

This medium-to-deep garnet wine was tasted at a walk-around Super Bowl party, and was striking enough to warrant extra attention. The nose is very intense and perfumed, with aromas of white flowers, jasmine, garrigue and black raspberries. It is medium-bodied on the palate, with light/supple residual tannins and well-integrated alcohol (despite being listed as 14.5%). The flavors mirror the nose and the solid middle palate leads to a long, smooth finish. This is an elegant wine which has developed significant complexity and finesse. Owners of well-cellared bottles can now reap the rewards from their patience. Drink now-12/17.

Probably a perfect bottle and showing very nicely. Nicely balanced but drink up now.
