Smoky and ripe blue berries, the nose is more leathery than fruity, classy. Beautiful palate of dry fig, leather, and wood. High acid and noticeable tannin but very integrated. Lingering incense note and long finish. Very nicely aged. Good to drink now and next 5 years.

Dark cherry and purple tinge. The combination of characteristic rose and dark cherries on the nose makes this wine interesting and attractive. Woody and plenty of dark fruits, lingering vanilla flower, smooth tannin and floral characters at the finish. Goooooood Marche wine. Acid is still quite austere due to its youth. Much more than a “novelty” wine! Enjoy over next 15 years.

Brilliant wine. Inviting nose, sweet, lots of dark flowers, nuts, and raisins. Quite full-on palate, fat and dense fruits, with some bitterness at the end. Ready to drink now, but I can see more and more sweet characters and nuttiness will develop over the years - problem is to keep this from unopen.
