This wine presents itself to us in an attractive, brilliant ruby color. The nose is clean and complex. Notes of red fruits such as strawberry and raspberry mingle with freshness, as do black fruits. The toasty dimension of barrel ageing, which becomes apparent after aeration, is well blended and therefore quite discreet. On the palate, the attack is frank and suave, the body is full-bodied and the finish, on the fruit, is crisp. The tannins are velvety and the fruit aromas gourmand.
