"08-16-06 Appearance: Inky purple/black.
Nose: Deep brooding nose with bits of tobacco, a syrah-like meatiness, dark berries and bits of oak and spice.
Palate: Dry with good acidity, midweight plus. Big flavours follow the nose, rich midpalate, long clean finish. Not a lot of tannin in this wine.
Conclusions: I suspect that this wine would age up to 10 years, gradually mellowing and softening, but I'm not sure. It should go at least five. Try this wine with spicy foods, or those with lots of tomato paste." lfw


FROM THE PRODUCERS:"Incitant à la découverte, ce vin est doté d’une riche couleur violet écarlate et d’un bouquet intense de cassis, d’épices et de bois. En bouche, l’intensité de ses saveurs fruitées, ses tannins biens enrobés et sa délicate finale boisée accompagneront parfaitement le gibier et les grillades de bœuf. Très bon déjà, il a tout le potentiel pour évoluer honorablement dans les 4 à 5 prochaines années."
