Tasted in 05/24. Deep red in color, the nose is marked by notes of cherry, blackberry and spices. Rich on the palate, with a spicy finish.

Very Bordeaux-inspired for the ageing, well done. Beautiful aromas, fresh, balanced and easy to drink on the palate. Long finish. Drink now.

The first bottle I opened resembled acetic acid, and one glass bottom was enough to burn my throat for 2 days. I can only hope that the other 5 bottles won't be the same.

Too much acidity and lack of roundness.
