A nose of black berries, spices, herbs, olives and tapenade, a touch meaty and a slight hint of barn aromas, the palate has decent fruit, it is tight, medium bodied plus, texture a tad dry without being thin, medium finish, pretty good.

Un nez de mures, tapenade, olives noires, une touche viandée et étable mais sand être dérangeante, la bouche est assez serrée, de corps moyen plus, une texture sèche sans être mince, finale moyenne, c’est assez bien. 89-90
