Very bright dark ruby. A fighting middleweight. Fine black fruits, some blackcurrant, some plummy. Touches of cedar and tobacco. Clean acidity. No great length but enough. Lacks a huge body. Not a criticism but praise, a perfect lunchtime claret.

Used one for cooking, worked great, added good flavor. Drank one with the Beef Bourguignon, it was a bit tannic, not a lot of fruit.

Good colour, bit rustic nose and not a lot of flesh in the middle taste; however balanced and nicely drinking, typically 2006.
