Visual aspect: purple red, dense, deep, a fine brilliant disc. Nose: aromatic, prunes, blackcurrant buds, burlat cherries, blackberries, almond pits. Palate: a fresh attack, violets, spicy, blackberries, fruit pits, prunes, almonds, red fruit coming through, nice balance, mellow, fine and elegant. Match with food: rib of beef, roast veal in juice with morel mushrooms. Comments: love at first sip! Racy, distinguished, fruity, good ageing potential.
