The wine display a fantastic garnet red color, an explosive nose exhibits some notes of fresh red fruits (red currant, Burlat cherry, and white fruits like pear). These flavors are accompanied by cocoa, licorice, and hearth. The attack is fresh, explosive and later, it reveals smooth and fine tannins. A beautiful freshness, a good length with notes of Morello cherry and caramel with milk. "This has a brambly feel, with a cassis bush note running throughout. The core of succulent plum, blackberry, and raspberry fruit is bright and defined. Shows lots of racy grip through the finish, complemented by buried minerality. An excellent effort and a real surprise; this has blossomed following the élevage. Best from 2018 through 2025." - Wine Spectator
