Full bodied. This has an expanding mid palate with great weight but somehow seamless at the same time. It offers everything from dark fruits, bacon fat, chocolate, rose hip, rose petals, cinnamon, cracked black pepper, black tea, violets and so on. Nice long ending with a mineral sensation. You end up with a massive amount of tasting notes that shows the complexity and quality of this wine.

Aroma has chocolate nuance. Vanilla, oak. Blueberry. Syrah derived pepper etc. spiciness. Good wine should wait for years. 2019 @3420, chateau -, 230628-230724

Young but drinking well now. Ripe dark fruit, chocolate, chalky tannins. Full bodied with a mineral driven finish. Great mouthfeel. A 30 min decant to begin. Really Enjoyable.

Dark ruby. Oaky, chocolate, citrus on nose. Burnt marshmallow, raspberry notes, peppery finish. Lasting deep tannin.

Young but is drinkable at the moment. This wine will age nicely over time. Bought more of this vintage because of the potential as it matures.
