The palate is fruity, gourmand and offers a fine tension, a bright fruit, a good definition, precision, a good finesse of the fruit, a beautiful fine/unctuous matter as well as a beautiful suavity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of bright cassis, bright plum, small notes of bright strawberry associated with fine touches of fig, violet as well as hints of aromatic herbs/fresh local garrigue, hazelnut and a discreet toasted oak/vanilla. Tannins are well-built. A gourmand wine on the fruit.
