I you close your eyes would you guess it is a gevrey? Maybe yes but most probably not. It is an international wine! Plenty of fruit and toast. There is a fruity sour cherry and plum nose but lots are coveting it. The mouth is round, soft and full. Has some years ahead of it but not sure whether these years will transform this wine into a different more nuanced experience.

Clear, medium ruby/garnet. Very pronounced and redolent on the nose. Cherry, a little candied perhaps, old furniture, rose oil. In all it's perfumey beauty, I was surprised to find it quite linear on the palate. Dry, medium + acidity. Very fine grained and velvety tannins. Light body. Cherry pit, red apple, slightly resinous note but not much going on in the way of secondary notes. Slightly peppery on finish. I think this has potential to be quite something in time.
