"Intense garnet-red with youthful highlights. Generous nose of plum, redcurrant, licorice, mixed spices and fresh oak. Dense and fresh on the palate. A mineral dimension is added to the aromas of the nose. Carefully matured, everything is in place". (Gilbert & Gaillard 2018) Excellent value for money!
