Also in a difficult vintage, this wine delivers. Floral (violets) and mineral smoky nose, a mix of raspberies and blueberries. A bit of oak spice but nothing obtrusive. Fruity entry on the palate, followed by typical Daõ acidity, lower tannic weight compared to previous vintages. Fruit is still in a primary state so no need to hurry. Good persistence. A perfumed and elegant wine for mid term drinking.

Not massively expressive on the nose some dark and red fruits, hint of wood spice. The fruit is a little more open in the mouth, the tannins are soft and all in all it's smooth and rounded. It does have a bit of hidden structure to support its ageing ability.
Reckon another year or two would help open up the aromas.

Dark red fruits (dark cherry, plum, red berries), med+ tannins, spice, med+ acidity, moderate oak. Good balance.
