The nose is aromatic and offers power in intensity (and control), deepness as well as a subtly tight grain. Almost an airy side in its intensity and power. This wine needs time to reveal itself. It reveals notes of wilted rose, dried strawberry and more slightly of small dried red currants associated with touches of sage, tobacco, rosemary, heather / dry scrublandas well as discreet hints of spices and a discreet smoky side. The palate is fruity, elegant, well-balanced and offers intensity while finesse (and control), a nice freshness, richness in freshness, an airy side in its small creaminess, a spherical side in its fat as well as a very nice delicate, velvety and airy touch. On the palate this wine expresses notes of wild blackberry, heather and more slightly sage associated with small touches of dry rosemary, toasted almond, bergamot, fine hints of chocolate, liquorice, black olive, toasted, a discreet smoky side and a discreet faded rose side (almost discreetly humus but full of control). A discreet minty / eucalyptus side in the background. Tannins are precise, elegant and airy. Good length and good persistence. A musk side on the finish / persistence. A very bright future for this young wine!
