Transparent light ruby with strawberry hints. Nose of earth-infused light airy violets, musky plum, bramble, iron dust. Layers of nearly weightless but insistent, tense red raspberry and black cherry fruit shot with ferric granules and aristocratic dirt. Smoothed tannin and freshening acidity. Long finish of brambly, fine-boned red fruit coated with powdered rock. Lovely, impeccably-balanced wine.

This is drinking at its apex with red fruit, smoke, herbs and spice. While it is light in its feet with an ethereal touch, the wine shows really good complexity in a resolved manner. A very good Malconsorts that is more feminine than what terroir usually expresses. 93+

Smoked fruit, earth, spice, and dark fruit in the nose and palate. It shows the terroirs power and depth while it is expressive and balanced on the palate. 93+

Stood up well in a CSJ, Malconsorts, Amoureuses lineup. Drinking nicely with softer tannins with minimal tertiary development. In s nice place if you like lots of fruit.

Excellent balance. Typical montille whole cluster. Spice, red cherries, and perhaps rhubarb. Decanted 2 hours. Still room to develop further.
