Léger, mais s'est amélioré avec un peu d'aération. On aurait souhaité un peu plus de fruit pour équilibrer la finale légèrement asséchante. Bien, mais à 20$ on trouve mieux.

Nose: fresh, leathery with blacberry and blackcurrant. Taste: tannins strong, but not obtrusive. Needs some decanting. Acidity just right. Leather and blueberry. Probably could wait in a bottle for a couple more years. Good accompaniment to my risotto.

Nose had minerality, cedar, wet wood, licorice. This wine uses a smaller grape varietal with thicker skins. I tasted green twigs and this wine was seriously tannic. In its awkward youth. cherry and a little blueberry fruit.

Très rustique avec une finale rugueuse et asséchante. Un vin de table et non à boire seul. Correct sans plus.
