  • From memory. A dark red crimson color. Concentrated. Nose of red fruit, sous-bois, and floral notes of dry flowers. Still quite young. On the palate, a coating dissipating fruit that has a chalky texture that is quite appealing. This is drinking beautifully. Red berry fruit, earth, and quite concentrated with a core of acidity that gives lift and balance on the long and appealing finish. This was better than expected and a real treat. Excellent.

  • Color: Clear, pale cherry red;
    Nose: Clear, medium (+) intensity, fruity, floral, spicy, earthy notes and oak aromas, high complexity;
    Taste: Dry, high acidity, medium tannin level, fruity, spicy and oak aromas, medium (-) body, high complexity, very long

    Very good harmony, nice oak and tannin, but the aromas seem not really perfect, so it is lacking a bit of "class" or style, so it's a typical borderline Grand Cru on its peak level, but nothing more than that
