Probably the most complicated wine of the evening. It was the riskiest choice for this event. And it got the lowest scores. Intense and multilayered bouquet of dried medicinal herbs, peach-flavoured ice tea, amber from fruit trees and animalistic hints. Tannin is quite powerful (so why is it called Macération Pelliculaire?). Acidity is good. But overall, it lacks balance. It's too horizontal, and the ethanol is too edgy.
