On the nose, fresh, fruity and offers a nice fruit, a fine straightforwardness. It reveals notes of fresh/juicy blackcurrant, fleshy blackberry and hints of raspberry associated with touches of fleshy currant, fresh flowers and hints of spice, discreet hints of camphor and pepper. On the palate, fruity and offers juiciness, minerality, a juicy/acidic frame, good definition, greediness, fine richness. The wine expresses notes of ripe/juicy blackberry, bright raspberry and hints of pulpy/fresh cherry combined with hints of violet, chocolate, racy/iodine minerality, fine hints of toastiness, vanilla and an imperceptible hint of fresh blond tobacco in the background.  Good length.
