Owner's words
A very open nose of fresh red fruits, raspberry, strawberry, and black fruits, blackberries, blackcurrant.Hints of sweet spices, liquorice, tobacco leaf. Complex and fresh. On the palate, it is well balanced with a god freshness and great deal of vivacity. Good concentration with a nice and soft texture, the wine offers a perfect harmony. Very lively, it is full of energy and delivers agreat length. Nice complexity of flavors ranging from fresh fruits to spices, cigar box and hint of smoky minerality, faithful to the terroir of Graves. A great and compexe wineetween harmony and smoothness.
