Classic nose of slate minerality with various reductive fruit components, dried apples, candied stone and pome fruit with a hint of caramel and brioche. Quite juicy fruit, full-bodied, reductive overall impression, prominent mineral notes with depth and tranquil stone fruit, candied apples, slightly spicy, elegant acidity, noticeable sweetness on the palate, good balance and harmony, good finish.
