It takes some effort to bring out the truffle, fresh herbs and just-picked plums. Once you find them, they stick with you, along with a strong, tannic backdrop that frames the fruit. Long, concentrated, fresh and stony, this needs time in the cellar.

Le Figaro Vin

A fresh, tangy wine, fairly short, but well made.

Overripe, this seems like an oddly structured wine. The fruit is buried under the wood influence and tannins, which introduce a licorice character.
