Medium-plus cherry-red. The nose starts a little funky and diffuse, little time is required to lose the funk and provide a wide, slighty warm and deep effect, eventually it’s a lovely redcurrant nose. Almost as intense as the two Jacques, equally mouth-watering and similarly long. The overall profile is slightly more rustic with some grain to the tannin, but as this tannin fades with timeyou are very close to a cut-price Clos St.Jacques. This is heartily recommended.
