Flight 3 , wine 2. Medium ruby and garnet terracotta rim. Quite reticent at first but marked but a light cassis , blackcurrant note , some violet also . More menthol and cassis on the palate also . Quite good density and with good fruit , slightly medicinal hint on the finish. Pretty good overall and though rustic was well balanced . This I thought was the Duhart 82 , probably because of the density on the palate , however was wrong , yet again.

Quite impressive color still, youthful dark fruits w/Cordier merde in abundance, structured but w/medium, non-astringent tannins, medium-long finish, I don't mind some Brett so I like this one a lot, if your Brett tolerance is low, YMMV!!
