Tasting notes
Medium red. Red berries, mocha and wild herbs on the nose, lifted by pungent spices. A sweet, supple midweight with a penetrating, slightly green character to the moderately intense red fruit flavors. The acidity seems elevated but the wine does not come off as hard. Finishes with good cut. I'd enjoy this over the next five years.

(25% vendange entier Medium red. Black raspberry and cherry on the nose. A juicy, pretty wine with firm acids framing the flavors of dark cherry, licorice and spices. Not fleshy but not hard either. Finishes with good intensity and length.
Bright fresh raspberry fruit. A little lean. Very cool but (just) a bit of fruit to compensate. (JR)
