A very pleasant wine. Bright, clear red colour. Aromas are surprising in their intensity and fruit. On the palate, a tender, supple, graceful, round body. Very flavourful in the aftertaste, with a hint of blackberry jam. When the wine gets older, wild blackberry is the dominant aroma. After 3 or 5 years, the wine takes on a distinctive smell of truffle and undergrowth evolving towards notes of venison.

A very floral nose with red flowers and violets on offer, as well as a core of wild raspberries and cherries. The palate has a smooth, approachable feel with brambly red fruit in a fresh, soft and supple mode. Drink now.

This well-delineated red offers cherry, blackberry and earth flavors. Its breadth is offset by beefy yet well-integrated tannins and lively acidity. Appealing, if a bit chunky in the end. Drink now through 2029. 1,200 cases imported.
