Note: Guide Hachette 2** (Remarkable Wine) + Coup de Coeur
“This 2010 offers intense toasty and vanilla notes that nonetheless respect the fruit (blackcurrant, red currant jam), with hints of eucalyptus and sweet spices. This balance is reflected in a full-bodied, dense, very round, and silky palate, supported by tannins that are already well-integrated. ‘A wine with feminine charm,’ sums up one taster.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2013)
