A broad PN by renowned Domaine de Villaine. Made from domaine’s single vineyard of La Fortune, fermented with 2/3 whole clusters, aged for 12 months in oak. Medium+ ruby colour. Medium+ intensity aroma of smoky cherries, roses, strawberries, violets. Medium+ body, rich and savoury, would love to see more finesse, but considering its southern location it’s a fine achievement. Nicely balanced red fruit flavours with floral notes, medium+ acidity and medium+ fine and soft tannic structure.

deep ruby red color with hints of garnet; aromas of ripe red fruits, primarily red and black cherries , black tea leaves, light smoke and notes of grass - must have some whole-bunch;

Darker color with clarity, strikes the nose with hints of herbal eucalyptus and cherry scents, subtlety structured with soft edges, velvety mouthfeel and balanced acid, flavors of flowers, raspberry, plum and tea, comes in at mid weight but is effortless, ripeness of a vintage that drinks well early on, well made as usual

Fraichement arrivé, on ouvre pour voir si on en rachète. Assez frais et digeste. De la petite fraise, canneberge, noyau et poivre. Il y a aussi des herbes et la finale courte est sans accroc. Bien et sans défaut mais à proche 50$ je n'y trouve pas mon compte. J'ai autant de plaisir avec des villages et des Givry qui sont 15-20$ de moins en ce moment. Je passe.

첫째날 루비색상에 딸기향가득
딸기와 은은한 오크향
산미 가득하고 바디감 가벼움
레드 베리향이 진해서 다른향 찾기 힘듦
