Monthly Tasting Group EEE #012; France: Loire (@ BD): Blood red with hardly any carmine. Fairly deep bouquet with some horse stable, leather and blood and also some red bell peppers. On the palate there is some development, oak, leather, cherries, bell peppers and tannin that is still a bit sticky. Ready now, but it will stay on this level for some more years.

Nez fumé avec du poivron, un peu de framboise Le vin est juteux, rond, agréable avec son coté poivron bien sucré mais pas complexe ni long. Assez bien mais pour 32$, ce n’est pas exactement une aubaine et bien loin du Alliet Vieilles Vignes par exemple. 86 pts

Fruity wine with a good amount of acidity. Juicy cherries and raspberries with good bitterness. Still quite young. Will gain with a few more years of ageing.
