Tasting Note

The 2018 is ripe, generous, and immediately inviting, with a fragrant nose of sweet strawberries, ripe cherries, and a touch of balsamic richness. On the palate, it’s layered and expressive, bursting with juicy red and black cherries, wild herbs, and a whisper of garrigue. Savoury undertones of leather, sandalwood, and a dash of white pepper add depth and complexity. The tannins are silky and melting, beautifully balanced by a fresh, supple acidity. While it has the structure to age gracefully, it's already drinking beautifully, thanks to its vibrant aromatics and effortless charm.
