The nose has a plethora of mulled spices followed up by intense red berry fruit, chocolate orange, but fresher, mint leaf, such elegance! In the mouth this is more like a high end Pinot, supremely elegant, sweet red fruit with great length, balance and elegant tannins.

Wild animal gamey fat, violets, blackberry, spice and a touch of smoke. Very nice. The palate is wonderfully made and rather on the length. Some matter too don't get me wrong. A strong acid backbone and a very long finish. Some blackberry and spice on the sides, gentle tannins, a soft touch with an almost mocca note. The finish is long wide and comes with an unexpected freshness which brings almost an apricot note in the end over some blackberry jam and black pepper. This is very good.

Ah là oui c’est très bon, tout en finesse mais pas fluide pour autant.

17.5/20 (93/100) Вино с насыщенным и красивым ароматом цветов, тоника из бузины, спелой вишни и сливы, мускатного ореха. Тельное с довольно высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, вяжущими, но не сухими танинами. Ягодное во вкусе. Молодо! (12.04.17) #DVR2017
