Deep dark ruby colour, purple reflections. Dark berry confit on the nose with fine spicy notes, ripe cherry, delicate nougat touch, a hint of orange zest. Powerful, good tannin structure, black cherry, lively acidity, very persistent, mineral and racy, and with very good development potential.
More about the tastingDeep dark ruby garnet, opaque core, delicate rim brightening. Restrained bouquet on the nose, dark forest berry confit with a delicate leafy underlay, very delicate floral nuances. Complex, rather red berry fruit notes, powerful, still present tannins, delicate bitter chocolate on the finish, lingers well, dark nougat on the aftertaste. All in all, still somewhat one-dimensional. Will be able to improve in the future. (89 - 19th rank)
