Beautiful purple color. The nose reveals notes of undergrowth, humus, fresh mushrooms, a true terrien. Followed by fresh fruit, strawberry, blackcurrant, plum, elderberry. In 3 words, refined, complex and graceful. Supple, full attack with splendid substance, cherry, raspberry, bitter cocoa. Integrative ageing, lightly roasted. Racy, mellow tannins. Superb graphite and saline finish. Great harmony and complexity. Good ageing potential. Tasted blind on 23 10 2020 with 9 other wines.
