Excellent RQP (encore) car se vin se ''nouveau-mondise'' si je puis dire, à mon grand regret. Autrefois légèrement boisé et sec, il l'est de plus en plus à chaque millésime. C'est dommage car ce vin est tout en fruit, avec une belle concentration et longueur en bouche.

Le vin aborde une robe foncé sans aucune trace d'évolution! Le nez nous livre des flaveurs de prune, de pruneau séché, d'épices et de réglisse noire. La bouche est fondu et parfaitement concentré, conduite par une acidité bien dosé et un fruit délectable au boisé fondu. Longue finale anisé et jolie texture. Parfaitement à point et quel rapport Q/P.

Medium bodied cab with strong cedar and spice nose. The cedar gives way to leather and mint on the palate. Something else there too, maybe blueberry or red plum. The tempranillo really gives this wine a whimsical feel despite the cabernet backbone. Tannins are soft, if not smooth, straight from the bottle with a few swirls.
Liking this restrained take on cabernet. Might not stand up to the richest of red meat dishes, but, nice on its own and would play well with a lot of foods.
Not sure how much I paid but would be good value around $14-17.

Dark red; dark fruit, spice, some plum aromas and flavors; medium, dry, smooth, somewhat soft vs. acidic; clean and light finish.

Dark ruby red color with a brambly and cherry nose. Cedar, leather and fruit on the palate. Nice but somewhat simple.
