Color
Covered cherry red, black in the core, delicate violet lightening towards the rim.
Nose
On the nose, the 2011 Héloise displays sweet aromas of candied black cherries, pickled cranberries, dried figs, praline and truffle. With a little oxygen, notes of dark tobacco, tar, green pepper and burnt rosemary join in as a nice contrast, giving it a masculine touch.
Palate
On the palate, one is surprised by its delicate freshness and its stimulating tannin and acid structure, which contrasts beautifully with its charming and sweetish fruit. This is a wine to watch, with Burgundian hints that will become more pronounced as it matures.
