Very supple and silky. Evolving in the glass. Violets, plum, green bell pepper, iron and blood. Quite lean. Very good

Nov 23rd, 2015Always a save bet, unfortunately so hard to get. In a great spot at the moment. Cherry, herbs and just a hint of green pepper on the cool & elegant nose. Nicely integrated tannins & acidity. Medium+ finish.
