Another of the small gems from proprietor Jean-Philippe Janoueix, the wine is soft, juicy with a dark ruby/purple color, ripe cherries on the palate, a medium body, low acidity and soft tannin, this is an attractive, fleshy medium-bodied wine to drink over the next 5-6 years. A sleeper of the vintage.
Wine Spectator 2012 (87-90 Punkte) JG 2011
Ripe, slightly extracted in feel with a taut plum skin edge running from start to finish, along with crushed cherry and blackberry fruit. A good tobacco note wafts through the finish. Score range: 87-90

Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Viel Brombeeren in der Nase, ansprechend. Im Gaumen aromatisch, geschliffene Tannine, wieder mit aromatischem Ausklang endend. Sehr gut gelungen. Gastronomischer Genuss.
