The wine boasts a deep garnet hue. The nose is highly expressive, opening with scents of rose intertwined with aromas of red fruits and wild berries. The palate is forthright and indulgent, with well-integrated oak and flavors of blackcurrant, blackberry, and spices. The finish is long, with a beautiful salinity.
It will open up after a good hour of aeration to reveal the full extent of its aromatic palette. The power conferred by its terroir allows it to be aged for 6 to 8 years in a good cellar.
This wine will delight game enthusiasts when paired with a beautiful haunch of venison, but it will also complement a beef cheek shepherd’s pie or a platter of regional cheeses.
Jasper Morris : 88-91/100
