Tasting Notes
Vinous 90
Good dark red. Compellingly vibrant aromas of raspberry, strawberry and blood orange lifted by spices and crushed stone. Intense and alive on the palate, boasting terrific density for village wine. The long, sweet, palate-staining finish features dusty tannins and impressive energy. A big success.

NB vintage. Quite a deep crimson – much less obvious fruit on the nose than on the 2007 tasted at the same time in Nov 2008. Fine tannins are the first impression, then bright fruit. Less supple than the 2007. Dry finish. Wait!
