Visual aspect: a ruby colour, softer on the edge of the glass, development is beginning to show with a bright colour.  Nose: pleasantly-melted aromas of quite ripe red fruit, a touch of grape, cooked strawberry, discreet and soft maturation hints, as well as smoky, powerful, floral and nutmeg fragrances.   Palate: supple on the first taste, with young structure, crisp tannins, mouth-watering acidity.  The finish reveals a flavour of liquorice, it is refreshing with a  mentholated hint.  Match with food: quails cooked with grapes, patridge, slowly roasted pork. Comments: ready to pour now, pleasant, should be decanted.
