Tasting notes

Dark purple-red colour. Pretty nose. Hints of dark berries, herbs, oak, minerality. Powerful and structured Chinon in the mouth. Young and tight. Shows some oak. Dark berries. Some herbs and also greenness on the finish. Closed right now. Good acidity. Tannic and oak showing on the finish. Good wine that needs more time to intagrate the oak and open up the fruit. Try again in 5-10 years. Very good.
