At the opening, the nose is the yeast. After decanting, it is still very young to the nose and the eye. Notes of pepper, anise and cassis. The mouth is very pleasant. It is rich and ripe with an almost sweet finish. Wood is discreet and bright fruit. Very nice wine that gives great pleasure now (to decant still a good hour) may seem a little expensive for a single CDR village, but the level of several "small" Chateauneuf.
