TASTING notes

The 2011 vintage has a lovely garnet-red colour with hints of pink. The bouquet is revealed with swirling, offering dark berry notes of blackberry and cherry, with a slight development towards truffle, and a refreshing touch of spice. The palate features a fresh, welcoming attack which develops into supple, but ever-present tannins. This wine is very well-balanced, and promises to age well. It has a long, soft, and slightly spiced finish. This vintage is a good example of the Ferrand terroir and of great things to come.
