Note di degustazione
Bright purple. Lively, mineral-accented cherry and boysenberry aromas are complicated by suggestions of olive paste, incense and candied flowers. Broad and juicy on the palate, offering concentrated bitter cherry, cassis and violet pastille flavors and an energizing jolt of cracked pepper. Tightens up slowly with air and finishes smoky, chewy and quite long, with a lingering suggestion of candied cherry and solid tannic grip. (50% whole clusters)

Cask sample. Tasted blind. Sweet cherry fruit, plenty of peppery spice and a touch of new oak giving some clove character to the finish. Very compressed, but with plenty of potential. (RH)
100% Sérine clone (60 – 100 years old). 50% destemmed. Fruit from: Les Savaux, Les Chaillots and Patou. 24 months' ageing in new- and one-year-old oak barrels (Allier, Tronçais and Jupille). Very deep, intense, purplish crimson. This was the first sample that didn’t smell completely fresh, as though it had been exposed to a little too much oxygen. Ambitious and glossy in terms of texture. Burnt notes and pretty dry on the end. Needs quite a bit of time. Savoury and a bit wild. Fruit is buried under the structure. (JR)
