Lovely nose, youthful, ripe red and black fruits, spice and warmth from the wood, very good depth; creamy texture, medium weight, good tannic grip, freshness and elegance, intense flavours; good length, hints of eucalyptus and cocoa. Good stuff, drinking very well, now - 2020.
14% ABV. Wonderfully rich and sweet fruit, notes of fruitcake, spicy and glossy, seamless, perfectly integrated ripe tannins and acidity, deceptively easy to drink, excellent depth of flavour, fleshy and creamy, quite full-bodied, especially for a Cahors this is utterly beguiling; very good length. Has the wow-factor, will last a long time but why wait?

Identical to my previous note. A lovely aperitif.
