I decanted this for 5 hours before drinking. Nice nose with cherry, grass, mud, leather and a little meat. Mostly grass on the palate with a earthy finish. Nice wine, but very light. We drank it with fish and rice, which was enough to completely overwhelm this wine.

Sorry maggiej, I don't agree with your tasting notes, although my score is very similar. Decanted for 4 - 4 1/2 hours. The nose is delightfull, lots of strawberries, some raspberries and cotton candy. Also there is a smell that believe it or not was very similar like autumn wet leaves. This wine tastes great too. Medium body, great acidity. It's flavor profile is that of a very "bright" raspberry and strawberry. Medium lenght finish. A very pretty wine, to me definitely a buy! PS: OH NOW THAT I REMEMBER, RIGHT AFTER OPENING IT I TASTED A LITTLE OF IT AND I GOT SOME BACON-TYPE FLAVOR, THAT COULD BE THE "MEAT" YOU TALK ABOUT, ALTHOUGH YOU SAID YOU DRANK IT AFTER 5 HOURS OF DECANTING.... :)

nice strawberries, a hint of raspberry and a nice cotton candy on the nose little spiciness as well on the palate and a little greeness, good finish, although it needs a little more expresion on the palate.

A deep Gamay purple with purple edges, the wine gave me black cherry on the nose as well as plum, rose, violet, smoky herb and dirt. “Aha,” you think, “that dirt is surely a touch of Burgundy to the north,” but no, this is not the stinky dirt of the Côte d’Or, but a tough and rocky, self-defining granite dirt. No snails, no worms, no…I'll stop here. To be complete, I must add that I felt significant alcoholic heat on the nose, but it did not survive to the palate. In the mouth the wine is full bodied, with polished tannins. The acidity chirps in when it needs to. Red fruit leads: plum, cherry, sour cherry and something deeper—half of me reaches for cassis, the other half likes pomegranate—though all these fruits are well melded with abiding notes of violet, rosemary, and lavender. The finish is long, multi-faceted, and quite a serious affair.
