"Magnificent, powerful nose, intense fruit (blackberry, blueberry, apricot) enhanced by hints of peony, violet and jasmine, very structured palate, with real substance, vigorous and fleshy, bright fruit and crazy energy. Very original and racy, contrary to its name!" (Le Guide des Vins Bettane & Desseauve 2020)

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2020 guide) 17/20 (Reference wine)
About the wine:
Magnificent, powerful nose, intense fruit (blackberry, blueberry, apricot) enhanced by hints of peony, violet and jasmine, very structured palate, with real substance, vigorous and fleshy, bursting with fruit and crazy energy. Very original and racy, contrary to its name!
Gilbert & Gaillard
Wine rated (2020 guide) 92/100
About the wine:
Intense color, still young. Concentrated nose, revealing fine aromas of candied red fruit, graphite and black pepper. On the palate full-bodied, with a fine, tight tannic structure and fine balance. A fine wine.
