Wednesday, August 2, 2023 - Appearance: Bright and clear, the wine is of light ruby colour, with fading garnet and legs.
Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity aromas of black fruit of blackberry, dried fruit of prune, red fruit of ripe cherries and raspberry, pungent spice of liquorice, kernel notes of chocolate, oak notes of cedar and vanilla. The wine is developing.
Palate: Dry with medium acidity, the wine has medium (+) tannin of ripe and smooth texture, high alcohol, full body, with pronounced intensity flavours of black fruit of blackberry, red fruit of strawberry, oak notes of vanilla and cedar, pungent spice of black pepper. The wine has a medium (+) finish.
Conclusion: Very good quality Rhone CDP with an intense nose showing wonderful complexity, with plenty of black and red fruit, spicy and oaky, with also nice chocolate and vanilla aromas even though it has not yet fully developed its potential. On the palate it is powerful but showing up well-balanced, with smooth tannin and phenomenal concentration of flavours. Finishing with a very long length, it is ready to drink but can further develop for another 4-6 years.
