Pale ruby, garnet at edge. Medium intensity nose. Pomegranate blackberry red cherry. Red vines even. Eucalyptus and licorice. Secondary cloves and coffee. Tertiary caramel. Lots to like and a lot going on!, especially on the nose. Lots of layers. Palette has staying power (and is pretty intense for a burg) with a long finish does still need time it seems as acidity and tannins are still pretty aggressive.

couleur rubis moyen; plus pale que les robes habituelles du domaine. Nez parfumé de fruits rouges, épicés et terre humide; coté minéral bien présent. Bouche souple, sur une version plus délicate dans son expression; belle acidité équilibrée.

Nose: Cherry, strawberry and ludens cough drop. A slight touch of wood emerges after some vigorous swirling. After 30 mins in my glass the wine took a much deeper pitch with fruit, dried cherries. Palate: cherry, pomegranate a bit tart but appealing, mineral with medium + acidity and tannins still very present but still enjoyable. Good stuff!

Some Wine Tasted at the Acker La Paulée Auction (Maybourne Hotel - Beverly Hills CA): Tasted at auction. All red fruit, on the lean and tart side while with good density. Better to cellar longer.
