An intense vermilion red with a slight crimson tint. The nose opens on red fruit aromas, especially cranberry and bilberry, with a hint of caramel, then goes on with airing to reveal notes of ripe fruit such as blackberry and cherry. From a streamlined attack on fresh fruit flavours, especially bilberry and cherry, with a touch of herby garrigue, the wine develops a round and very rich mid-palate, culminating in a long and highly elegant finish on spice notes, especially white pepper.
