Very bright. Sweetness and candied violets with vivid cherry. Lovely balance but way too young. One for the future

Medium ruby , showing a little bit of development , slightly brick rim . Quite floral and aromatic at the start , ripe spiced cherry and plum, strawberry jam. Touch of anis . Round and quite sweet in the mouth , ripe spiced plums and strawberry, black tea. Quite nice refreshing acidity and slightly drying tannins . Falls off a bit on the finish , slightly light and short . Overall pretty good though does show a bit of warmth, reasonable complexity . Next day a bit more reserved , shows a deeper more meaty , menthol character , less sweet and better balance and length. Tasted on 15/08/2022

Rubis clair
Nez sur les fruit noire, l olive et note progressivement plus florales
Bouche dense mais délicate fraîche et pleine
Coeur de bouche ultra généreux mais frais
Finale enCore jeune et primaire dans son aromatique mais ultra délicate
Un vin tres accessible pour son âge et ultra prometteur par les arômes actuels
