Deep ruby with purple tinges, the nose opens with vivid red fruits; cherry, raspberry alongside notes of wild strawberry, underbrush and a subtle hint of graphite. There’s also a spicy peppery note typical of Cabernet Franc. On the palate it is medium bodied, juicy and fresh: the fruit is vibrant supported by fine grained tannins and balanced acidity. Earthy minerality shows through, giving depth with a touch of herbal notes and a whisper of oak. The finish is long, persistent with red berry tones and a salty, mineral edge lingering. It’s expressive now but has enough structure to improve with a few more years.
