(68% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon) The nose is fruity, beautifully fresh and intense in its floral aroma. It reveals notes of fresh/juicy wild blackcurrant, flowers (iris, lilac) and small notes of fresh pepper associated with touches of pulpy/fresh cherry, a hint of berries and discreet hints of zan. A very discreet sappy hint. The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, suavity, shine, a small chiseled side (in the background), fleshiness, pulpiness, creaminess as well as a lovely tangy juiciness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy cherries, blackcurrant and small notes of chocolate. Tannins are sapid, discreetly powdery and racy. Good length. Presence of fine hints of chocolate, coffee and flint. Beautiful freshness. Good persistence in the creaminess.
