Tasting

Robe : A sumptious dense black colour.
Nose : The nose which is complex and rich; red fruits and spices dominated by powerful aromas of the meditarranean scrubland (garrigue).
Palate : The finish is longlasting and pleasant. Nice concentration and extraction without any dippiness, good quality silky tannins give length and focus.

The finish on notes of black olives and hints of seaweed brings evokes the terroir on the Meditarranean coast.
