Really really great. Will develop for hours and hours. Even days. Loads of black fruit and dried fig. Apricot, orange peel and hazelnuts. Absolutely incredible with goats milk black mission fig ice cream and toasted almonds. Trust me, don't die before you try that.

An interesting experiment. Will let sit around for 5-10 years and we'll see how natural yeast fermentation Bourgueil for sub $12 does with a little age. Super fresh while young. Even better with a little chill.

Big and brawny. Needs a decanter and a strong wrist. Purple and black fruit, blackberry jam, dates. Super young and feisty.
