The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, suavity, gourmandize, a small fat and a fine tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/bright cassis, violet plum, small notes of blackberry associated with touches of small red berries, bright cherry as well as fine hints of violet, iris, a subtle hint of pepper, liquorice and chocolate.
