Massy and filling but cool and fresh too. Tannins are at the fore but they're not too dry or too sweet with clean but light blueberry fruit in the background. Well worked, missing some more vibrancy and weight with real grip from the acidity. 6% Cabernet Franc completes the blend. Ageing 63% 500l barrels and 37% amphora. Eric Boissenot consultant.
