Deep Ruby with aromas of smoky dark fruits and herbal notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black pepper. Short finish, firm tannins, lively acidity, ending with fruit and spice. Drink now, no further aging benefit!

Vintage 2010 / It can be uncompromising harsh, Cabernet Franc. When young. It can be delightful elegant and charming. When aged. I love the grape with its successes in the region Loire. This one is even now dusty stubborn direct out of the bottle. But gains charm with every minute. Fine spicyness.

Green strawberry, sour cherry, red currant, thyme and other green herbs. Light in body, pretty tasty.

Green bell pepper and green raspberry on the nose. A bit young still I'm guessing. #asp

Shorter finish than I was expecting.
Cranberry notes, with some spice.
Really good.

Cherry under spirir. Clove and cinnamon. A bit too harsh. Quite short.
