The highly aromatic nose is deep & complex w/ aromas of ripe, dark red & black fruits, black cherry-raspberry, blackberry, stony mineral, garrigue, white pepper spice, kirsch & smoke. On the dry, medium-full to full-bodied palate it is ripe, harmonious, gently spicy & warming, but within balance, w/ lovely savoury, stony, black-blue fruits, peppery spice, garrigue & meaty flavours w/ touches of violet. Acids are crisp, juicy & succulent, while ripe tannins are smooth & refined w/ good structure. Stony, smoky, meaty & peppery spice notes linger on finish, w/ excellent length. Tasted Jan. 2024.
