Clos Lapeyre
Jurançon
Jurançon, Southwest France, France
Medium lemon colour. Intense nose showing developing aromas of very ripe pineapple, honey, lemon peel, nutmeg and ginger. Sweet and zesty in the mouth with a rich texture, a well integrated alcohol and a lot of flavour intensity. Long finish.
It is a very good quality wine. The high acidity is well-balanced by the sweetness supported by the fruit concentration, and it provides the wine with a lot of freshness that makes it easier to drink. The fruit concentration is remarkable, as well as the finish length. However a better example of this style would be more complex.
It is drinking well now, but its firm acidic structure and fruit concentration will allow it to mature and develop more complex tertiary aromas over the next 5-7 years.
