Our oenologists' opinion
Well-rounded
Dark garnet colour with black highlights. The nose is open, spicy, warm, with plum jam, strawberries and roasted coffee, a hint of caramelised wood. Supple, velvety attack, with fairly long and fat tannins, tension, and a little finesse. Good balance, quite fleshy. Satin finish, medium persistence on candied pepper and grey pepper.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.
