Vintage 2019 | For the cellar | Beautiful creamy smell with cassis, laurel and vaguely leather. Silky on the tongue with very ripe tannins. A sexy taste, só young. | With beef and mushrooms

Very smooth, medium red. Color is velvety with a fair bit of sediment. On the nose: tobacco, cherry, apricot jam, slight vanilla and orange peel. Very easy to drink despite being slightly heavy on tongue. Would serve to friends, good to pair with steak, fruits, and hard cheeses.

Jul 28th, 2024Deep ruby in color; black cherries, blackberries, and cigar box on the nose; high acidity; high tannins; tastes like black currant, crushed gravel, and a little eucalyptus with a long finish. It needs to decant a bit longer. Very structured, but delicious. After a hyperdecant, and sitting for an hour, the tannins mellowed a little and everything tastes more integrated. I'm taking off 1 point because the eucalyptus is too strong for me, but I still love this wine! Nellie says it's ok.
