Sommelier's Notes

The nose is elegant, aromatic, quite ample and offers ba certain intensity in freshness as well as delicacy. It reveals notes of wild cassis, strawberry and small notes of ripe wild raspberry, small fruits associated with small touches of spices, fresh leather, a subtle hint of cinnamon, roasting, pepper, a discreet hint of graphite as well as an imperceptible hint of menthol and undergrowth. The palate is fruity, beautifully mineral and offers a nice freshness, acidity, roundness, a small spherical side, a certain fat as well as a certain energy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/quite ripe raspberry, red berries and slight notes of bright purple plum associated with touches of blackberry, slight hints of pepper, caramelization, nutmeg, sweet spices as well as a subtle hint of toasted almond, Bourbon vanilla, star anise and an imperceptible hint of undergrowth. Tannins are precise, supple and sapid. Good length.
