| Tint: | An intense, profound and opaque wine that displays good concentration. Shading from dark violet to aubergine (egg-plant) with a purple tone at the edge of the glass. The wine is bright, rendered opaque due to its density and has a concentrated appearance in the glass. |
|
| Catch: | A silky smooth aromatic framework with smooth jammy notes of blackcherries, blackcurrants and raspberries. The second nose provides refreshment with notes of liquorice, violets and mint, followed by distinctive notes of barrel ageing (coffee, torrefaction). Good potential for increased complexity in the coming years. |
|
| Taste: | The attack on the palate is soft and smooth and loaded with jammy fruit flavours. The wine hides remarkable richness and balance on the palate, with an array of fruity flavours similar to those found on the nose. Velvety yet finely coarsed at the same time, the finish reveals ripe and spicy tannnins and a very structured length. This wine is most suitable for keeping for some duration, given its richness and fine structure. By Corbières and Languedoc standards, this wine is a divine monster and an excellent vin de garde. Simply exquisite, profound and delicious....classy earthy charactered fruits unveiled and premiumly exposed. |
