Drank this one over two evenigs. Easily accessible, even straight out of the cellar, no need for long decanting. Fresh, full-bodied, well-balanced. A pleasure to drink, also the second evening. Great stuff.

Good value for a nice evening companion, very typical Southwest France, dark fruits, good structure, very accessible now, probably won't evolve any further, so we will empty the other bottles over the coming months.

Interesting experience. There is plenty acidity and sour cherries on the nose and palate. The wine is still fresh, you would not recognize it's age, tannins are perfectly matured and woven in. I am not the biggest fan of such wines, I miss the warm and earthy note,s and it could be darker and more fruity for my taste. However, very nice wine, good to enjoy over the whole evening.
