Wonderful. Sexy red fruit. Austere smokiness. Dark hard fruit. Spice and charred meat. Great acid. Who'd believe this was 18 year old tannat.

Il faut vraiment lui donner 30 minutes, mais ensuite c’est tout soyeux. Avec des notes plus cuire, café et terre. Et pourquoi pas un peu de marmelade. Best ever, selon mon jeune fils

Beautiful red and black fruit, licorice, leather, supported by acid as much as by tannin, still could use time.
