Very good depth of color - a firm core with a touch of ochre at the rim. The nose brings hints of olives and dried herbs, dark caramel, orange zest and cassis, and with air a touch of mint. Juicy texture on the palate, with minty lemon nuances and fine savoury tannins that slowly but surely reach the end of their carrying capacity. A blackberry touch on the finish reinforces pleasant extract sweetness.
