Score 89-91/100 · Allen Meadows, Burghound
Somewhat curiously given its considerable altitude relative to the Pézerolles, the nose is a bit riper with extract of raspberry, red currant, cherry, earth and spiced tea aromas. There is a restrained mouth feel to the intensely mineral-driven medium weight flavors that display plenty of underlying tension that adds a sense of lift to the delicious and persistent finish where the only nit is a discreet hint of warmth. Tasted: Apr 15, 2013. Drink: 2019+
