Note : Bettane & Desseauve 14,5/20
"The nose is dense, smoky, very ripe, with black olive accents. The texture on the palate is compact, still tight with powerful tannins". (Le Guide Bettane & Desseauve des Vins de France 2014). A full, unctuous Rasteau, with harmonious fruit and fine balance. A great success!
