Visual aspect: superb, crystalline and radiant, with a deep colour.
Nose: delicate, fruity and woody on aromas of spices and hints of roasting.
Palate: supple on the first taste, fruity and concentrated, with pleasantly-melted, but distinct tannin. A wonderful finish on flavours of wood and spices.
Match with food: sea lamprey à la Bordelaise (red wine sauce with leeks).
Comments: extraordinary delicacy and elegance for this wine.
