Thursday, September 26, 2013 - Mixed grand cru red Burgundies (AuZone, Stockholm): Slightly lighter than medium red. Nose with strawberries, oranges including orange zest, spice, some animal notes with fur, beautifully handled oak, slightly flowery; young and quite elegant. Palate with ripe strawberries, some liquorice and spice notes, good concentration, medium++ tannins, long and spicy aftertaste. A young wine that needs time, but a good wine in powerful style with quite well-handled oak, 92+ p.
It is a surprisingly tough wine for being a wine from Anne Gros, whose wines usually are quite elegant and polished.
