  Raspberry, underripe blueberry, almond poppyseed muffin, and thyme. Smooth, dry palate. Soft tannins on the medium long+ finish.
  
  This is young. I expect this will exceed my score in a few years.

  Lovely red fruit aromas with some black fruits. Juicy and delicious flavours of raspberry, cherry, blueberry ,red currants, oak, and pepper. Medium tannins and acidity. Nice stuff.

  Drinkable now. Fruity. Medium. Not tannic. Not tart. Should age.
  
  Went good with steak and scallops. Complex.

  A polished wine, albeit very sound and certainly not without local conncetion. The vintage speaks here, it's sexy stuff, sweet, ripe fruit, local spice, chocolate, tobacco, all the fixers. Already open for business, but will keep of course. A medium bodied wine, not your heavyweight champion neuf, this is dressed up to go to dinner.
