Tasting Notes
Medium crimson, ochre reflections, broad rim. On the nose fine spice-scented red berry fruit, nuances of cherry, subtle nougat, a hint of mint. Juicy and complex, silky texture, structured with finesse, a highly elegant and delicate wine, red berry fruit, fine tannins, good finish, aromas marked by Merlot, rather filigree overall impression.
More about the tastingOne taster out of eleven complained about a cork fault and abstained from the evaluation. Medium carmine garnet with a broad ochre rim. On the nose, finely spiced, dark berries, hints of nougat and mint with a slightly leafy undertone, develops well in the glass. Juicy and complex with a silky texture, a finesse-rich structure, a highly elegant and delicate wine, sweet red berries and a good finish. Although it has already degraded slightly, it still has a few years ahead of it, at its peak ten years ago, a magnum is a real treat today. (99 PP).
