Tasting Notes
Wild cherry, sloe, very ripe dark red raspberry, some caramel, juniper and iron. The palate is full of delicacy, almost subtly flowing, with immediately vivid "wild" flavours, lots of juiciness, delicate thread of acidity and a mineral foundation. A Côte Rôtie with Burgundy-like finesse, already in a first stage of maturity. But does not lack power and substance: certain ageing potential for another 15 years.

Complex, black berry fruit, fine, well-integrated tannins, pleasant chocolate aftertaste, delicate peppery spice, sweet extract on the finish, elegant, with assured ageing potential.
