Un nez de fruit noir et d'anis qui m'amenait en Piémont...! C'est droit et tannique mais les tanins sont fins, avec une belle minéralité. Excellent vin fringuant et je crois que le meilleur est à venir. 92-93 pts

Last bottle of 6 - still drinking very well. At peak but should hold for another 1-3 years depending on cellar temp.
PNP. blackish red color. Limited amount of sediment. On nose, black cherry, tobacco (only with airtime), wet stone, licorice & touch of garrigue. On palate, raspberry, tart cherry, black cherry. Medium+ acidity, medium+ body and long finish. Tannins completely integrated.
Best of 6 bottles. 92+/-

91+ Enjoyed with smoked pork shoulder. Excellent pairing - held up well to the fat / smoke of the pork. Didn't take good notes but went well with the meal. Very dark flavor profile and nice sweet tannins.

limited notes - heavy and light simultaneously, good blackberry flavors on the attack, hints of licorice and crushed stone. In many ways reminded me of a priorat. a touch rustic.
