Community Tasting Note

• Tenuta Stefan Likes this wine: 95 points

  April 24, 2015 - Bottle in perfect shape. 750 ml. Great fill.
  Dark yellow, slightly golden ... but lighter than most de L'Orée I've tried over the years.
  This wine needs time to open up. At least 2 - 3 hours in decanter.
  Lovely tropical bouquet of pineapple, cocoa, citrus, apricot, pear, candles/wax and yellow fruit. Very complex. Nice depth.
  Great texture, rich, concentrated, several layers appears, nice structure, a bit stoney mineral, complex, fully integrated. Great balance! Long finish! Lovely tropical flavours in the aftertaste. Aristocratic wine I must say.
  If this wine only had more acidity it would be the best of the best.
