Our oenologists' opinion
Powerful bouquet
The nose, although yet to open, offers a lovely bouquet, evolving towards notes of red fruit gratin, cocoa and bay leaf, with a touch of fresh leather.
The attack is velvety and fleshy, supported by silky tannins and a fine body.
The character reveals itself in roasted red fruit, milk chocolate and sweet spices, giving it a lovely intensity.
The finish is velvety and powerful, with long-lasting spices and red fruit gratin, offering fine finesse.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.
