Medium ruby, with orange hues on the rim. On the nose, fine dark berry confit, aromatic herbs, oak, nuances of orange zest. On the palate, powerful and very vivid tannins, with a pleasing fruit driven sweetness underneath, elegant persistence, mineral, with a subtle savouriness in the aftertaste, fine dark chocolate on the finish. A good example that the wait is usually worth it with Bordeaux, because the wine has developed very well with maturity.
