Brought by AW to La Cabotte. No formal note. Ripe dark fruits, touch of mocha, some earth too. Medium/full, quite generous and motuh-filling, ripe dark fruit, fresh acids, slightly firm on the finish. Decent though.

Decanted 45 minutes before serving. Medium-light ruby color with garnet flecks. A bit reserved on the nose, some strawberry candy, cigar, and more cherry with air. Medium-light body with medium-to-medium-light tannins and medium acid. Hint of sour cherry on the front, some raspberries, and a definitive cough syrup-like finish. Expect much better at this price.

Bright ruby in the glass, maybe just a shade of orange at the rim. On the nose… Just rained in the woodland early autumn … lichen, leaves above, leaves below… And on the tongue the woodlands follow and you also get sweet raspberry conserve… It’s fresh and it’s polished with a silky texture. The last of six and an example where I’ve gone through the case too early, this probably should have been bottle three or four.

This bottle didn't really hit it for me. Quite a bit of acidity to start, then after a couple hours this eased and it became a bit more full bodied. Glacee cherries and oak, all primary flavours. Could it be too young? I've got one bottle left, will take a punt and leave it a couple more years or so.

Élégant pour un NSG - l'élevage est en grande partie intégré, les tannins sont souples. C'est bon mais peu complexe.
