Little Co2 left on purpose in the bottle that vanishes after a good half an hour.
I like very much his style
The fruit is clean, not big, it has coriander, musk, white pepper and lots in common with a French Syrah
Maybe not even the best vintage, but I am glad to see that few years don't make this wine worse but better 👌🏽❤️

The wine is clear and bright with a deep ruby colour.

The nose is clean and developing, showing medium+ intensity aromas of black pepper, red plums, red cherries, cedar and hints of clove.

It is dry in the mouth with a medium+ nervy acidity. It has firm velvety tannins and a medium+ well-integrated alcohol. It has a full body and pronounced intensity juicy flavours. The finish is long.

It is a very good quality wine with a great balance between alcohol and acidity, supported by the fruit concentration. It also has a lingering finish and it shows some complexity provided by spicy notes and oak ageing, however it's not complex enough to be considered outstanding.
