Walkaround tasting so just short notes: Dark berries, some oak and herbs in the bouquet. On the palate juicy dark berries and some earthy impressions. The wine just entered its young maturity stage and is a pleasant to drink now.

A savoury and profound nose, smoked and spiced meat, ripe blackberries, leather with hints of tobacco and graphite. This needs an hour in the decanter for the wine to open. The same aromatics flowed to the rich and fresh palate. Almost full-bodied in its structure. The ripe fruits, sweet cinnamon and clove with earthy minerals permeate from entry to finish which has some an additional dimension of pencil shavings. Keep this for another 3 years for the elements to settle down and harmonise better.

I had a taste at Qatar Airways’ lounge in Doha. Dark, dense - good acidity but not much fruit and some gamey flavor to it. Nose seemed close. Maybe an off bottle but I did not partake any further.

Jolie acidité mais un peu maigre longueur moyenne. Bon rapport Q/P néanmoins. À boire mais sans urgence
