- Notably deep crimson. Some fresh (very slightly underripe?) notes on the nose but ripe tannins. Particularly clean and frank. You could drink this essence of blackcurrants already. There's an attractive kick at the end.

- Some dried fruit on nose, farmyard hints. Nice dried fruit, clove character, spicy and with some fruit finish. Quite serious. Drink now.

- Intense red ruby color. Complex and aromatic bouquet of red mature fruits, with cassis, plum, cherries, and jammy flavors intermixed with discreet oaky notes. An expressive and very well balanced wine with supple, mature and round tannins that makes it ready to drink right now. However, this wine will benefit if cellared for several years.
