The wine has a brilliant, youthful colour with cherry highlights. The elegant nose opens out on wild berry aromas reminiscent of blackberry and bilberry, fruit flavours on the palate develop over fine tannins that will mature with ageing, building to an attractively firm and well-structured finish. Substantial alert and well-structured on the palate, its very soft tannins are perfectly enfolded in rich cherry-stone, spice, leather and blackcurrant flavours. The finish, combining charm, refinement and character, is thoroughly typical of both the terroir and the vintage.
