A generous and distinctive wine often superb. The colour is intense and bright. On the nose the first impression that arises is that of cherry. Then woody and fine spicy aromas appear with an elegant hint of musk in some vintages. The flavours are extraordinary in their richness and harmony neither too rough nor too heavy. The architecture of the wine is held up by fine and noble tannins giving the body a silky texture (called "gras"). Acidity brings energy and liveliness to the whole. The aftertaste is a pure delight
