Medium carmine garnet, violet reflections, still youthful color, delicately under-roasted. Fine dried fruit notes on the nose, (roasted) plums. Strict tannins on the palate, red berry fruit nuances, preserved cherries, firm core, but not much charm, the emphasis is on the acidity. This time fine hints of roasted plums, subtly sweet confit. Firm tannins on the palate, somewhat hard and dry, red berry fruit, medium texture and length, vital acidity.
