Tasting notes
Dark ruby/plum with notes of garrigue a la Provence, roasted meats, plum, and black cherry, this wine has good grip, relatively elevated tannins for the levels of concentration, and medium body. It is a good, meaty, masculine style of wine to drink over the next 12-15 years.

Mid crimson. Fresh, sweet, violets on the nose. Very smooth and succulent. Not a long-term player but very harmonious and confident. Very fine in traditional mould, but for relatively early drinking. JPM. (JR)
Deep red-ruby. Aromas of black fruits, licorice and menthol. Brooding and restrained today, with good density but limited sweetness. A bit inky and unformed at the moment. Finishes with building tannins.
