Visual aspect: a beautifully gleaming garnet-red colour.
Nose: powerful scents of spices, ripe black fruit and stone fruit, revealing excellent structure.
Palate: combining full-body, distinct but pleasantly melted tannin. A fantastic range of flavours; the finish is long and silky.
Match with food: guinea fowl pan-fried with chanterelle mushrooms.
Comment: a lovely, faultless wine: full and round.
