Sunday, July 5, 2015 - Decanted for 1 hour. Deep crimson core with a strip of garnet at the rim, this has a very earthy nose, with maybe liquorice and vanilla in the background ... very old world in character. The palate is full flavoured, blue cheese and dark stone fruit dominating with spice and white pepper making up the rest of the choir. Finishes long with a crescendo of fine grained, savoury tannins. Overall a very good Larose release where well cellared bottles will still improve with a few more years bottle age. Matched with eye-fillet roast.
