Monday, December 11, 2023 - Great, great vintage
Great AOC
Very good producer. No surprise, that this wine is simply so delicious. 2 hours in the decanter, it could be 3, because acidity is still so vivid and fresh.
Sweet aromas of plum, black cherry, dark chocolate, but on the other hand red cherry, forest, flowers, vanilla ( so good).
The taste is bright, fresh, and energetic. Ripe red cherry and red currant, sweet spice, herbs, milk chocolate and vanilla again. Long finish with perfect tannins, spice, red fruits. Balance and harmony.
Third glass - coffee and cocoa both in smell and taste! Dust and grainy tannins.
Earth.
Unbelievable transformation!
