Visual aspect: deep garnet-red hue, orangey disk, evolving. Nose: nice intensity, complexity, black fruits, undergrowth, spices, vanilla, fruit liqueur (blackcurrant, blackberry). Very nice nose. Palate: pure at first taste, the tannins appear quickly. The aromatic range is in harmony with the nose. Melted, round. Nice balance, long finish. Match with food: red meat with sauce; roasted lamb with a tapenade crust . Comments: delectable, pleasurable wine.
