NOSE: tight, and red-fruited – perfumed cherry – with a hint of stinky cheese – brillat savarin, perhaps?
BODY: warm ruby color; medium bodied.
TASTE: firmer structure than the ’04 Delas Hermitage “Bessards”, which was tasted alongside; good acidity; 13% alc.; needs more time; I really like this, and prefer it to the aforementioned Hermitage.
