A soft wine. Soft nose, but still with a distinct lead of strawberry. Palate also fairly soft, initially too soft, but after a 45 min plus decant much better balanced. Still fruit driven, strawberries and other red berries at the forefront, but with some soft tannins to balance things up. All in all quite enjoyable. Went well with roast of lamb.

Tasted at the winery. Bright cherry and varied floral notes on the nose. Medium bodied with a really nice mix of red cherry and strawberry upfront, backed with deeper, more black fruit notes of black cherries and plums. Very nice integration and balance into the finish which showed light spices, mineral notes and very good acidity. Balance between the tannins/acidity and the fruit, especially on the back end of this wine was its standout quality. Very drinkable now, but has room for some additional improvement over the next year or two as it integrates further and shows even more complexity through the middle.

Bright, good fruit and acidity, smooth and balanced with a tangy finish. Drinking very well. Excellent sausage / cassoulet wine. ***
