(at Decanter Magazine's January 2015 issue Cahors Panel Tasting, 16 Oct 2014)
Drinking Window: 2015 - 2020
Aromatic notes of ginger and honey behind the ripe, dark fruits. The palate has the sweet lick of oak and there is enough fruit to take on the oak in the finish and the wine’s natural tannins win out in the end.
