Rating: 2**(Remarkable Wine) + Favorite in the 2009 Hachette Guide
"A charming, smooth wine. The elegant nose reveals aromas of blackberry and blackcurrant accompanied by a hint of menthol and a touch of spice. The full-bodied, well-structured palate continues in the same vein, with hints of dried fruit" ( 2009 Hachette Wine Guide). An uncomplicated wine for any occasion, appealing for its pleasant fruitiness and roundness. An affordable pleasure to be enjoyed now...
