Tasting notes
The wine is brilliant and limpid.
The robe is an intense garnet.
The wine is clear and right.
Before stirring: expressive nose of red and black berries.
After stirring: mulberry and rapsberry aromas mixed to any greedy notes of a soft and melted ageing.
The mouth is voluminous and densely framed by a fine tanin.
The finale is very persistant and very mixed red fruits.
A wine which is typical from the cru.
Wait until 2020 for tasting with an ageing potentiel until 2045.
