Visual aspect: ruby-red colour, clear violine, deep. Nose: very discreet, needs swirling. Black fruits and spices. Palate: mentholated note, fleshy presence. Highlighted coating tannins, light astringency. Black fruits in the finish, spices and coffee. Freshness. Match with food: leg of lamb cooked 7 hours; bull's gardiane. Comments: a beautiful cuvée with a lot of potential. To keep or to decant young.
