Opinion

Journalist

“A vintage that shows a strong personality: an intense, spicy, opulent and straight wine at the same time, where the freshness of the juice is superbly respected.” South West Wines Magazine

Autumnal nose of undergrowth, humus and grilled meat juice. Tasty, mellow and fleshy mouth finishing on salty notes. Very appetizing, but to be drunk around 16°.
