More about the tastingNovember 2005: Strong ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate edge brightening. Slightly jammy on the nose, rather rustic, lean and fresh on the palate, acidic, hints of cassis, dries out a little, the tannin is not yet fully integrated, has power, remains enormously red berry - nevertheless not an optimal bottle. (Drink, another ten years in the future).
