On the nose it's earthy and smells of bread and sausage. Earthiness at the front, hint of smoke. Interesting and complex. Then a fruity bomb of a finish. Very smooth, very nice. Is this what terroir is all about? Tasted December 2011.
I enjoyed this wine veru much. For the price I bought quite few. Excellent wine from the St. Emillion satelittes. Wonderful fragrance. Strong tannins and a nice length. I think it will even better as it ages. When I see this wine in the Vintages I buy it.
