 Last tasting (02/2012)
Causse toujours 2010  Cherry intense, his nose is wild, but discreet . It gets worse after a quarter of an hour. The attack is smooth, the medium is large but semi long. The tannins are a fine but a little present . The retro-olfaction is complex and mineral. But this generous wine has a beautiful final freshness. You want to drink, but also keep a few years.

two curiosities from late harvest

Ribiera 2.10 9002
Its color isOrange-yellow, his nose is butter, the attack is smooth, the medium is fuample, The final round is less than red.. The retro-olfaction is spicy and has a volatile acidity, which is not unpleasant. This male white wine should be drunk at 14 ° with a chicken or cheese


Grenah 9002
Dense cherry color, its nose is fruit alcohol. The attack is smooth, the middle is ample, fine with a final very round. The retro-olfaction is fruit alcohol. This curiosity from late harvest is enjoyable. Alain Passard serves it with a pigeon: I tried, it is as incredible
