  Left this wine too long. What a shame. Tannic and acidic with very little to no fruit left. No rating.

  Grenat avec disque rubis.
  Nez très discret, un peu de cèdre.
  En bouche, peu d'acidité, alcooleux, tanins souple, pruneau, un peu disjoints. Passé sno peak ou une mauvaise phase? Mais définitivement pas ce dont j'ai en mémoire de ce vin. Et nous sommes un jours fruits... pour ceux qui croit que ca pourrait faire une différence... ;-)
  
  De beaucoup mieux au jours 2... toujours un trop de chaleur, mais beaucoup moins et l'harmonie est de beaucoup amélioré.

  Rubino luminoso. Mora, ribes, bacche selvatiche, note terragne, cuoio, leggera riduzione, pepe, tabacco kentucky. Bocca potente, sapida, molto lunga, nette note ferrose in chiusura

  Grenat avec disk pourpre. Au nez, cuire, Framboises, épices, très beau nez. En bouche, tanins soyeux et enveloppant, belle equilibre avec des fruits noire mures. Bonne longueur. Très bien, comme la plupart de produits Grand-Veneur. Bon maintenant, mais pouvant tenir encore quelques années.

  Thick, tough, concentrated, brawny, but not without its subtleties. Blackberry and blueberry, tannic and dry, but its the long dying finish that brings this up to 90.
