PNP into Zalto Burgundy glass (“Fruit” day): Medium ruby with slightly bricking rim to the eyes.
Organic red berry fruits bursting from bottle. Followed by florals and pine-like aromas (even some garrigue?), dash of finely grounded tangy spices - Arguably showing good amount of the region’s characters. Nose changing over time too and all very convincing to me.
Highly mineral from attack to finish. Acidity is fine boned and adds to the darker, almost black berry fruits that is more evident on the palate than on the nose. Persistent finish.
Very impressive and fine for a village level wine that is ready to be enjoyed now. 93-94 points.

Initially a bit lean and even green, a surorise for 2009. Gets much better with air, gains fruit, but remains tight and closed with pronounced acidity. From CP. #X-pensiive wineos goes Cab

Strawberry on nose. Anise. Fresh red fruit. Pure. Supple, fine tannins. Hollows out a bit on finish. Good grip. Moderate length not bags of complexity but very refined.

Clearly very young but great material to work with. Gorgeous on the nose. Fragrant. Fruity. Closely opened up to reveal lovely sweet fruit. Come back in at least 5 years.
