Very much red fruited with a thread of sweet tobacco weaving through the aroma and flavour profile. It is bright and energetic with a core of sweet fruit and some engaging savoury nuance. It is balanced and well proportioned with decent length.

Domaine de Chevalier Wine Lunch (Blacksalt): For a down year, this wine surprised me with how much structure and fruit it had left. The nose had tart cranberry, and a good deal of shredded tobacco. Palate showed subtle red fruit, with tilled soil, and a bright acidity kick on the finish. For a wine I wasn't giving much of a chance, this was a great surprise!

Domaine de Chevalier Tasting (Blacksalt): Suprising density and depth of fruit. Very lovely red fruit! Served en magnum. A pleasant supply
