The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers freshness, minerality, a beautiful freshness, a good definition as well as gourmandize, a certain tension, a beautiful gravely minerality, energy and a stretch side. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/fresh cassis, pulpy/fresh cherry and small notes of violet associated with touches of fresh/bright raspberry, griotte cherry as well as hints of violet, cornflower, fine hints of liquorice/zan, gravely minerality, discreet hints of fresh nutmeg and an imperceptible hint of fresh mild tobacco.
