In a few words ...

A great vintage and a year's ageing in French oak barrels bring great complexity to this wine. Melted tannins and notes of jammy black fruit are enhanced by hints of sweet spices. The whole is warm, balanced and subtly acidic.

Tasting notes

Appearance

Strong, almost black color with a slight evolutionary nuance.

Aroma

The nose is dominated by spices and licorice, enhanced by a hint of toasted notes, revealing a beautiful aromatic complexity.

Wine Fruity | Gourmand | Roasted | Spicy | Strong

Taste

The impression of unctuousness is confirmed on the palate with a fleshy, voluptuous tannic structure, characterized by a morello cherry and ripe fruit liqueur flavor.

A very good, lively bottle. May evolve for a few more years, but can be drunk now. Tannins are present, but soft enough to remove astringency. A very pleasant fruity nose. A fine discovery

a favorite among the domaine's wines! Lovely vintage. Aromas of cocoa, well-mastered ageing, I feel like I'm smelling the smoke of a Van Houten hot chocolate in the mountains :)

It's one of my two favorites of the estate, with its smooth tannins and lovely aromatic bouquet of black fruit and cocoa.

Very good value for money. A ready-to-drink wine, perhaps not as convincing as the Hachette guide but their description is quite accurate!

A wine of fairly classic character, quite straightforward, I think it's a wine to drink right away.
