Lesec, "Kristial", Chateauneuf du Pape, 2001

Light red.

Nuts, wilted greens, touch of oak spice(?).

Round and sweet (texture) in the mouth with nut character repeating. Red cherry liqueur, alcohol showing a bit. Intense, but light-handed. Shows the (front teeth) grip provided by stem inclusion. This needs some time to strut.
