On the nose, fruity and offers opulence, a delicate freshness as well as a fine grain. It reveals notes of juicy/fresh cassis, blackberry and subtle notes of plum combined with hints of raspberry, fresh lily and wafts of licorice. On the palate, fruity and offers juiciness, suavity, freshness, fluidity as well as a nice richness/concentration and tension. The wine expresses juicy/pulpy blackberry, cassis and subtle notes of pulpy cherry combined with hints of fleshy/juicy raspberry as well as touches of fresh licorice and of minerality and an imperceptible hint of chocolate (in the background). Good length. The tannins are precise and very delicately mellow.
