Lots of garrigue and old stone character on the nose with some dried red fruit aromas and notes of sweet red fruit perfume. On the palate there is a tasty patry crust note going on, with sweet red fruits and a silky and creamy feel to the fruit. A little oaky, but not over the top. Lots of structure and length, with chewy tannins and a more acidity than I expected from this hot vintage. Very good. June 10, 2007
