La robe est foncé et tire sur le violacé. Le nez émane la mûre, la fumée et la violette. La bouche est fraiche et tendu, pas des plus racoleuses, mais droite assez bien ficelé. Me fait un peu penser au Crozes de Combier, mais en moins expressif et complet.

Deep ruby colour. The nose is clean and developing, displaying medium- intensity scents of black cherry, dark plums and neutral oak.
It is dry in the mouth with a medium acidity. It has medium+ velvety tannins and a medium+ alcohol. It has a medium+ body and medium+ intensity flavours. The finish is medium+.
It is a good quality wine. The balance in the mouth is quite nice, the tannins are well-balanced by the tasty fruit concentration supported by the alcohol. It has a persistent finish as well but the nose... very simple and muted.

A bit of a dud, too herbal for my tastes. I'd would have liked to see more fruit and a little less steely acidity.
