(George Descombes Regnie Vieilles Vignes) Darker and riper than the previous wines. The palate was more tannic but there was stunning purity and freshness. The density here was the most so far and there were dazzling inner mouth aromas. Very floral. Like a red berry explosion inside your mouth with that crunchy texture I am starting to notice as a theme in the Descombes VV bottlings.
