There was no doubt about this wine when we
tasted it on the farm last week and our opinion was only confirmed when we tasted
it again on Monday at La Colombe
It
is spicy and savoury with fennel and violets - a robust nose. But on the palate
at first it has delicate fruit almost pinot Noir like in character but then it
steps ups to a different level, with full red and black fruit warmth and good
gentle wooding from 2nd fill barrels. Such a special food wine
