Minervois in perfect form. Drank better 24 hrs later. Drank nearly as good in 48. Robust and lovely.

(**) musky, wet horse makes a quick appearance on the nose, but the fruits on this 6-year-old still trot happily on the palate. Blueberries, raspberries and a little black cherry sparkle in its eye. Not complex. But well balanced acidity, alcohol and fruit. (2007 vintage)
