    Almost translucent. Purple. Garrigue aromas. Lots of crunchy red berries, very mineral on the nose. Blueberry fruit. Creamy, sour cherries, silky tannins, crunchy and juicy. Unyielding, mineral, a little flat and very one-dimensional. Crunchy tannins, zippy acidity. Very berry-driven, fruit-forward, fresh and elegant. Very harmonious and vibrant with lots of silky cherries and brambles.
