The tasting
The view: deep purple eye with violet reflections
Smell: nose which reveals notes of black fruits, jam, “pigeon heart” cherry flesh, kirsch, licorice and spices
Taste: ample and delicious on the palate, the tannins are tight, dense and velvety
Keeping: up to 15 years. When young, this wine will give you all the freshness and exuberance of fruit and powerful tannins. With age, it will soften to evolve towards more melted tannins and scents of leather, undergrowth and liquorice. If you have patience, this wine can wait 10 to 15 years without difficulty.
