Apple, brioche and citrus in the bouquet. On the palate a firm amount of citrus acidity, a touch of bitterness and a slight touch of sweetness. Overall a pleasant and focused wine.
The bouquet shows white fruits, yellow apples and some lime, but is overall not very expressive. On the palate white fruits like apple again. pear, nicely dry, a touch of bitterness and sweetness. Ok bubble.
Box-tree and grasses in the bouquet. On the palate grasses and all sorts of apples, some anise, good acidity, bitterness, and length. Also a pleasant touch of sweetness. Ok wine.
Light and aromatic bouquet with apple and pear. On the palate aromatic as well, full bodied, a bit fat, a touch of sweetness and good acidity. Nice wine.
The bouquet is not very expressive, but there are some small berry fruits like strawberries. On the palate red fruits like cherries and strawberries, also red currants and ok, firm acidity. Some oak as well as some lemonade impressions. In the group people were not so fond of this wine, but overall it was a clean wine.
In the bouquet red berries like raspberries, metal and geranium. Same on the palate, juicy acidity, a touch of sweetness, some bitterness and mild tannin.
In the bouquet red berries, red cherries, geranium and a touch of oak. On the palate juicy red berries and cherries, mild acidity and soft, round tannin. Nicely dry.

It is 6 years ago I tasted this wine and it is again a lovely experience. In the bouquet pleasant rustic and stable smells> Still red and dark berries like blackberries and cedar as well on the nose. On the palate red and dark berries, coffee, tobacco and leather and a firm amount of good acidity as well as tannin with still some bite. Beautiful and mature wine.

Not many notes because I have the impression the wine is not completely fresh. Slightly corked? Popped and poured the wine shows some red and dark berries, but on the palate the “cork” shows. There is firm acidity, so if the wine would have been fresh, it still is probably not too old yet.
