Massive hugely fruited nose. Dirt, Sous bois and minerals in the background. Massive mid season cherries. Some nice spice. Very clean and pure. Palate is juicy, ripe and has appealing dark red cherry and black cherry fruit. Lipsmacking acidity and freshness. One of the more brooding Les Vergelesses I’ve had. Really sappy but seems closed on the back end. Lovely length and persistence. Great texture and compactness. Massive fruit. More to come.
