Tasting notes
Good healthy, deep red. Fresher on the nose than the Charmois but less expressive. Silky on entry, then sweet and smooth in the middle, with lively flavors of raspberry, currant, plum, minerals and smoke. This shows good life in the mouth and finishes with firm, fairly sweet tannins.

Ruby-red. Aromas of black fruits, minerals and licorice, with a minty lift. Sweet and rich but juicy and bright, with notes of licorice and bitter chocolate. Finishes with rather chewy tannins.
Deep crimson. Very lively and brutal on the nose. Sweet start. Really does taste wild. Uncompromising and very youthful. Quite “wild” tasting. Lots of fruit and nature in the glass. But very firm tannins. In this case, the wine is very lively, so will probably be okay. (JR)
