I feel a little embarrassed even thinking i can make a review on this wine. This wine is a classic! Its going to be around for many decades to come with its class and distinction, I almost feel like it's looking down it's nose at me! And rightly so too!
I decanted the wine for 2 hours before i took my first sip, very challenging for me….Now, i am no wine professional , but i didn't really agree with the review by the official description, they said animal and woody…well i think we were drinking the same wine….upon my first mouthful i tasted chocolate and cherries….infact lots of rich dark fruits. This is the wine that you light an autumnal fire and enjoy what i call the epitomy of refined red wine.
Definitely this is a dry full bodied wine…but those are the ones i love, and so i was extremely happy when i opened a delicious La Plien Lune Brie cheese to accompany it on an autumnal Sunday afternoon…a marriage made in heaven!
This wine is definitely spicy, floral and fruity with a perfectly balanced firm woody tannin and long finish.
A wine that could accompany any meal with grace and presence!
Bottoms Up!
