It has the ripeness and rusticity of the reds but with the balance and elegance that only Fabrice Dodane and very few others are able to imprint on the wines in difficult vintages like this one. With the wild berry and herbal aromas of the variety, rose hip and hibiscus, watermelon and translucent red fruit. It’s medium-bodied, with mellow acidity and very fine tannins but not lacking grip. 93 points, Luis Gutierrez, Wine Advocate. Ploussard.
