Note and review by M. MATHIEU W. Published on 13/11/2024
Diepe paarsrode kleur. Aan de neus zondoorstoofd, maar ook vers gekneusd rood en donker fruit, kersen, frambozen, vlierbessen, pruimen. Daarnaast wat reductieve en florale tonen en lavas. In de mond veel sappig en crispy rood fruit, rode besjes, grenadine, frambozen met dat kenmerkende zuurtje, fijne zuren, grip, enigszins vulling, stevige tanninestructuur die nog helemaal moet afronden. Nu prima te drinken in z'n jeugd. Lekker op het fruit. Score: 15,5/20
