Pleasant - very light - sweet t says Can Sauv but has more Pinot characteristics with a bit of merlot and Carrigan - light body - medium finish. A Rabat!

A sure value of Moroccan wines, evoking Bordeaux by the presence of Cabernet-Sauvignon, associated with Grenache. Interesting value for money. Can age.

Une valeur sûre des vins du Maroc, évoquant le bordelais par la présence du Cabernet-Sauvignon, associé à de la Grenache. Rapport qualité prix intéressant. Peut vieillir.

Back to Moroccan lands with this wine favoured by my entourage. Common assembly of cabernet-sauvignon and Syrah. The solar concentration is felt. The colour is dark garnet, and the nose is rich in very ripe red fruits accompanied by floral notes. The mouth is concentrated with roundness bringing its share of spicy notes. 2015 is now aging, the ardour of youth giving way to a balance that seduces the palate of occasional drinkers. Amateurs will know how to recognise his general balance, with a rather interesting finish. Beautiful bottle in its price range, between Bordeaux and Rhône Sud.

Retour en terres marocaine avec ce vin plébiscité par mon entourage. Assemblage couramment pratiqué de cabernet-sauvignon et Syrah. La concentration solaire se fait sentir. La robe est grenat sombre, et le nez riche en fruit rouges très mûres accompagnées de notes florales. La bouche est concentrée avec rondeur apportant son lot de notes épicées. 2015 est désormais assagie, l’ardeur de jeunesse laissant place à un équilibre qui séduit le palais des buveurs occasionnels. Les amateurs sauront reconnaître son équilibre général, avec une finale plutôt intéressante. Belle bouteille dans sa gamme de prix, entre bordelais et Rhône sud.

In my opinion, flat wine with no rich body. Ok wine but nothing special.
