At restaurant, no decant. Wonderfully aromatic, with black cherry and jasmine. The flavor was similar, with a rich dark cherry, earthy, menthol. Very complex. Elegant and easy to drink, but clearly holding more in reserve. This will age nicely.

In der Nase sehr kräutrig, etwas Kirsche und Kirschjoghurt, dunkel rauchig und auch deutlich steinig.
Am Gaumen einerseits recht schlank und elegant, andererseits war 2018 anscheinend auch im Beaujolais ein sehr warmer Jahrgang. Hier auch deutlich dunkel steinig, recht verhalten in der Säure.
Mineralischer Ausklang.

Medium purple color. Still primary, but so aromatic. Intoxicating notes of deep dark cherries, some leather seat (like in a library), tobacco, candied violets, pepper, cinnamon, also a touch of licorice, also some herbal notes. It‘s medium+ bodied, with medium-high acidity and medium+ tannin that is exceptionally silky. Building complexity. A really beautiful wine with lots of finesse.

Consistent with previous bottles. Showed a distinct meatiness on the palate and paired great with some charcuterie and cheese.
