Sipping Fine Wine

9.8

Had this at a tasting and bought several bottles, aged well, just opened last one. Aged for about 12 months in French oak barrels (15% new). Ruby, brown edges, with aromas of red and black stewed fruits and complex spice. On the palate, flavors of layered fruit, ripe black cherry and raspberry with cedar, tobacco, herbs and nutty notes. Full soft tannins, balanced acidity, long ending with fruit and earthy character. Outstanding! Worth the wait! — 7 days ago

apricot peach sauce with grilled orange on the nose along with a musk of verbena and gardenia - in addition to these notes as flavors I found apple pie crust and a honey component leaning rich yet with a vibrant lift of lemon and lime acidity in the mid palate — a day ago

100% PN with 8% still wine. Red cherry x strawberry, pomegranate, rose petal, and light yeast. Creamy fine mouse. Bright, vigorous, yet delicate on the palate. Clean precise finish.
Very delicious and charming. — 4 days ago

Very elegant wine but needs time. Shy bouquet of cherries, wild strawberries, hint of underbrush, leather, white pepper. Takes some air to open up but the palate is supple and tannins are starting to get integrated. Try in 5-10 years. — 4 days ago

Very potent corton charlemagne. The wine is tannic with a lot of structure. Wet stones, stone fruit with great mineral Ity, keeps on changing and amplifying. Would benefit from a couple more years of cellaring. Magnificent effort from bought grapes. — 3 days ago

Smooth but relatively complex burgundy. Fairly herbal — I wonder if I grabbed this one after many of the fruit flavors were more muted, but the leather/game flavors had not fully emerged. Would drink again, when older. $119. RP 92, feels about right. — 7 days ago
