Bright medium ruby , perhaps a little more ruby on the rim than the Clos de la Dioterie . More sweetly fruited , with more red fruits than dark , spiced cherry , strawberry, raspberry , rose , roast red pepper, cranberry. Quite rounded tannin , balanced acidity . On the palate mixed summer fruits with strawberry , red cherry with good density, quite juicy but well balanced . Roasted pepper , spicy cherry , wet slate infused finish with medium length. This probably will improve over the next 5 or so years and last well a further 5-8

Pepper, tequila, cherry, and Tiva said, “An old suede chair, under a porch while it’s raining yet bright outside” with a smoky undercurrent this was a lovely wine.

Really nice and complex. High tannin, opened up nicely after an hour in decanter. Would benefit from a few more years in bottle. $70
