Sultry and seductive, this has such charming aromas that span mocha, dried herbs, dried sage and smoky torrefaction, always with a deep rumbling of brambly fruit. In the mouth it takes on a stony character, think of chunks of flint with jagged edges. It's nervy, full of energy, with a touch of farmyard and forest floor before it yields into sexy, lush blackberry fruit. The tannins are firm but finegrained. This has so much promise, drinking well now but with at least 10 years to give more pleasure. Cebenna refers to the Mont Caroux, a mountain which sits behind St-Chinian and is known locally as 'the reclining woman'.
