(one-third vendange entier): Medium red. Aromas of cherry, spices and licorice. Offers moderate depth and ripeness, showing a slightly medicinal quality to the flavors of dark fruits, menthol and spices. Finishes firm and a tad dry.

A relatively deeply pitched nose is composed of distinctly ripe yet fresh aromas of various wild dark berries, iron-infused earth, spice and black tea. There is good muscle to the cool and admirably pure medium weight flavors that possess good verve on the balanced and delicious finish that delivers good depth and length. Tasted: Apr 15, 2013. Drink: 2018+
