Estimate
...a magical wine...aromas of sweet wild berries, blood orange, Indian spices and rose petals, it's full-bodied, ample and velvety, with a sumptuous, enveloping core of vibrant fruit and a seamless, multidimensional profile. Revealing immense concentration, its chassis of perfectly ripe, refined tannins only makes itself felt on the finish...
...very transparent bouquet, yet introspective...opening with incense and a very subtle lavender aroma...medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, gentle but insistent grip, finely-tuned with a delicate touch of spice... What is remarkable about this wine is the persistence on the finish, a residual pepperiness that lingers for 60 seconds. A Richebourg imbued with prowess.
Very savoury nose. Edge of dried herbs. Really big, fruity impact on the palate. Very obviously DRC! Firm but with a massive fruity core. Thanks to a pause to speak to Perrine, this opened up magnificently in the glass. Broad and still dry on the end. Very sprightly with real lift. Transparent in every sense!
