Tasting notes

From the Georges Brunet-period of this domaine. Deep brick-red colour. Not deep, but quite red, with only a light browning rim. Lots of cabernet-notes on the nose. Herbacious and undermature notes that drags you more twoards cooler styled cabernet and the cabernet franc-variety. Also some blackcurrant-leafs, lead-pencil and red berries. Some floral notes. Mature, acid-driven and medium bodied Provence-wine in the mouth. Fine cabernet-notes. Nicely mature. Quite transparent and clear style. Nicely tight wine with a good acidity, especially for the region. Some tannins in the back. Nicely made wine. Ready now, but will keep a few more years. Very good.
