Deep ruby with a bright rim. Powerful aromas of black raspberry, incense and garrigue, with a subtle smokiness. Displays brighter red berries on the palate, picking up bitter cherry and minerals with air. The minerality gains strength on the finish and adds cut to the sweet licorice and floral pastille flavors.

Opaque ruby. Compellingly perfumed nose offers suave cassis, licorice and baking spice aromas. Elegant, medium-bodied and sweet, offering fresh dark fruit preserve flavors, velvety tannins and slow-mounting tanginess. This boasts almost shocking energy and cut compared to what I got from the nose. An excellent showing today.
