about RegionTASTING NOTES
—
Julien Boulard MW
Very clean fruity nose, reminiscent of dark cherries and blackberries, accompanied by a clear smoky effluvium. The palate is very savory, framed by a very firm tannic structure, crossed by a mouth-watering bright acidity. This is a big, intense and complex red wine ending on a long, savory finish. Very good!

Intense dark fruits alongside some grilled spices and mocha. It's an opulent wine with power. This is a wine to be kept for another 10 years. It's still showing its youth and energy.

Blackberries, green pepper, licorice, cloves, leather. Firm, dry tannins. A bit chunky and short on the finish.

Medium-to-full intensity, dark ruby red, confident and coiled. Very much enjoy the balance of fruit and freshness, feels pretty understated. Tannins are smooth and provide plenty of structure, and there are some bright dark blackberry fruits here. It's an excellent example of a 7-year-old Marselan, and still has a way to go.
