The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a fine acid frame, a nice freshness, a fine juiciness, fat, a nice minerality, an acid frame and a nice definition / juiciness. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry and juicy berries combined with slight notes of ripe / juicy cherry, fresh / juicy raspberry, touches of toasted oak as well as a subtle hint of flowers, caramelization and cardamon. Tannins are well-built. Good length.
