Great man on the label, but the wine is only good. Soft tannins, medium acidity. It isn't bold. Fruits are barely palpable (a blackberry), a bit of leather and bitter chocolate and/or mocha.

Black currant jam, vanilla, slight menthol touches too. Ok. The palate is well balanced with a rather sweet mouthfeel. There is a strong acid backbone, a nice black currant, jamy note all along, a very soft, gentle mouthfeel. Mid palate is building on a sweet note, tannins are discreet and the finish is rather nice with that black currant note, and a little tanginess too which gives balance after that sweeter note in mid palate. It's not great, in a sweeter style than those I'm used to, but it's an interesting take on cabernet Sauvignon.

Smooth, but not fond of the black cherry taste. If you like black cherries you will probably enjoy this wine.
