Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby garnet with purple reflections and delicate rim brightening. Aromas of fine blackberry confit underlaid with orange zest, dark cherry, inviting notes of precious wood, cassis and liquorice. Powerful on the palate with blackberry, black cherry, fine acidity, and vivid, well-integrated tannins that still need some time. Mineral notes, fine nougat: a true Vin de Garde. The sweet fruit at the core is still countered by the tannins, sure development and ageing potential.
