  Robe légèrement évoluée.
  Aromatique sombre, fruits noirs, puis sous-bois, garrigue, une pointe de balsamique.
  
  On attend les tanins ou l’alcool (on les connaît les corses du sud …), rien de tout ça, la texture n’est que velours et délicatesse, on lui donnerait bien dix ans de plus, et pourtant ce n’est pas mou, il y a du ressort. Le vin déroule, plein sur une structure toute en dentelle, finit sur une très fine mâche persistante autour d'arômes évolués mais pas décadents de prune, figues, sous-bois, épices douces.
  
  Très très bon, autant j’étais fan des rosés et blancs du domaine, autant je n’avais jamais été impressionné par les rouges. Il faut une première fois en tout. Très agréablement surpris par cette bouteille.

  Taste like Pinot Noir. Pale ruby in colour. Medium+ nose pronunciation with notes of cranberry, strawberry, red fruits.

  Bright red brambly fruits, nice savory quality, finishes a bit short and high toned. Was expecting a bit more complexity but maybe needs another year or two. Great summer red, serve a bit cool. NB: Another bottle a few weeks later was noticeably higher toned and showed a whiff of acetate.

  Light bodied yet very nice, complex, great balanced acidity and light tannins, upfront are notes of hay and dried flowers, followed by red berries and licorice, on a medium finish.

  Clear with light ruby center. Lovely medium weight with clay texture. Black fruit and licorice. Dry, moderately tannic, good length. Will benefit from a year or two.
