Visual aspect: steady garnet-red hue with purplish tinges. Nose: complex and flattering, mingling fruity aromas (black cherry, blackberry, blueberry) with scents of spices. Pear, vanilla, garrigue and flowers. Palate: sweet first taste then a superb retro olfaction, slightly woody, noble tannins. Superb finish. Match with food: Provencal stew. Comments: a remarkable and racy wine.
