Most Recent Tasting Note:
Wonderful nose, very characteristic of the vintage and the commune; sweet and very ripe aromas at the beginning, assuming more complex characteristics with time and introducing aromas of tobacco leaf, earth, smoke, black pepper, and ultimately perfumed and aromatic floral scented fruit; initial taste was ripe and sweet, loaded with black fruits, mature and mellow now; there is a second layer of flavor that emerges stronger with more time, and it is a layer of earthen tannins and drier textures with a slightly woody character; in balance though a fine wine, with both the sweeter fruit and the drier underpinning to the wine showing well at the finish. 1 Note
