October 18, 2021 - Slightly disjointed at first, probably as cellar cool and not decanted. Sour cherry notes, acidity quite pronounced and tannin a bit dominant. Settled down ok, and went well with lamb shanks with red onion and rosemary braised in red wine and balsamic.
Opened out nicely on night two, smoother, more integrated with sweeter fruit notes, tannins less obtrusive. Probably better opened and decanted for a couple of hours.
An enjoyable wine if not as complex as some previous vintages.1 person found this helpful Comment -

Pas long en finale avec une chauffe bien sentie.
On passe. -
