Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and well-rounded
Dark purple colour with purple highlights. Straightforward nose, initially austere, opening up to grilled pepper, sweet spices, white pepper, hints of ginger, garrigue, then peppermint. Supple attack, well-balanced, fine body, elegance, lovely character with red fruit and red pepper jam, satiny tannins, a hint of savoury saltiness. Supple, persistent finish.

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.
