Crimson red
Greenery on the nose, undertones on petrol
Slightly dry classic old world style, rustic style. Some savory notes too. Need to find more of this.

Savory meaty berries, bright acidity, nice structure...still a baby. #dailytable wine that could age a decade

Honestly given the glory of the its big brother the Clos Alpata I was expecting more, this one is not bad but truly average. Deep red color, nose of black cherries, wood, vanilla, black current, medium body with firm young tannins, night acidity, medium finish. My score 85, drink to 2018
