Brilliant color of a beautiful intense ruby. On the nose, a real basket of crunchy red fruits with strawberries and red currants. Beautiful freshness and balance of the whole with very great purity of the fruit, a lovely roundness without exuberance and silky tannins showing a sapid side that we like to find in this very accessible vintage.
