Avec le gigot d'agneau en croute d'herbe.
Un vin des Marches avec vue sur la mer.
Robe sombre mais disque bien pourpre.
Bouquet de boite a tabac, cuir, caramel, un peu kirsché.
Bouche avec tannins fins, fruits cuits, raisins séchés. Similaire a certain porto vintage, sans la lourdeur alcoolique. Longueur significative.
Bien, à point.

October 1, 2011 - This wine is FINALLY coming into its own. I still think that it has a few years before it peaks, but there is a nice balance now.

April 26, 2010 - This wine needs to breath. I would open and let sit for at least 1 1/2 hours. Or age for another 2 years. This is a nice earthy Italian cabernet that I think with time will be closer to a 90. There is some nice fruit in this wine. It just is not ready. Do not pop and pour.
